Day 6
Sometimes we (me!) approach things like fitness as something to fit in when we have time during the day. It’s sort of a flexible thing that we know we’ll get to, but we don’t necessarily plan for it.
You may find that while important, scheduling time for activity is not on your to do list. But, if you don’t schedule it but instead let it happen when you find a moment, the moment may never come!
How may other things may be competing for your time? For me it’s shopping, cleaning the car, taking care of kids, or even… I’m tired and just need a short break!
Don’t be distracted. Think about your WHYs. Then use your WHY to help you prioritize the time you need to engage in physical activity. Take control and schedule your training so that when all the other demands for your time scream for attention, you’ll have a plan to keep moving forward! And remember, you don’t have to do all the activities in one sitting!
You got this!
