Day 64. You have some work to do still. You are almost at the ninety-day marker, not having crossed the finish line, there is still work to be done. Years ago, I ran a marathon race and recorded my best time, 3:10. (Three hours and ten minutes.) However, it could have been better. I remember lagging behind at several points during the race; on purpose. There came a point throughout my event where I conceded I was not in it to win.
My reasons for sabotaging my success were, very personal and why I continue to do this type of "work" today. Sometimes, you make a choice to hold yourself back from success because your winning might create a loss for someone else. You consider the impact of your choices not only for yourself but for those you love as well.
Moving through life requires you to consider where you are and where you are going. You instantly create a new future with each life choice. You leave behind that which could have been and move into your new possibility. Choosing can feel like the never-ending story, a bittersweet feeling, yet a careful review of your choices will reveal much about yourself.
By this point in your journey, you know what it feels like to win and it feels good. You want more wins, however, maybe you feel like you have to stretch things out a bit. Too much-consolidated winning seems unfair, how could you be so lucky? How can you possibly win so much? You can. You can win every day. You just have to make that choice and not concede to loss.
My friend Alisa (shown above) puts one foot in front of the other and she makes her life a new possibility each day. We all have our crosses to bear. No one gets through this life without making difficult choices. I sometimes feel that other people's complaints about life are trivial and if they would only do what I do, then they would be fine. Eat right, exercise and meditate; how hard can it be?
It can be very hard. All I committed to doing these 90 days was to coach you by writing daily and guess what, I have not been pitch perfect. It will take me more than 90 days to finish this journey, however, just like my marathon race, I will finish it.
Let's say your goal was to lose one pound every week and instead, you have lost only 1/2 a pound each week. Wow, you still lost 4 pounds. You do that again in the next 60 or so days and you will have lost eight! That is significant. If you lose one 1/2 pound every week for a year, you lose 26 pounds.
Start your day with your best intention. Close your eyes and visualize having a successful day. Slowly come into your day allowing those powerful images to guide your choices. Take one step at a time and release the outcome to the universe. Deal with each situation in full awareness whether or not the outcome is good, bad or indifferent. Apply the principles of this challenge, declare your goal, seek out your accountability partner, and take action towards your desires.
The only way NOTHING will change in your life is if you do NOTHING. If you do something, trust that the universe has your back and is your best accountability partner. Your destiny will unfold before you as you intended it too. If you like how it's shaping up, repeat the process again tomorrow, if not, make a different choice. Just keep challenging yourself. Live each day one moment at a time in full awareness of your decisions. Then, realize the outcome, evaluate, make adjustments and keep moving towards the finish line. Forget time, just go.
