"When making plans think big. When making progress think small"- James Clear
When planning or strategizing be extremely ambitions and aggressive. When it comes to acting and executing you need to scale it down to something that you can achieve that day.
Think about anything in life that you've been successful at or that you feel you're great at. How did you get to this point? How did you become great at it? I'm guessing it didn't happen overnight.
That's because greatness is not built in the big things we do inconsistently but rather the small things we do consistently.

MAMELE MESSAGE:
"An analogy I like to use is this… (sorry if you’ve already heard me use this before, It’s just one of my favorites)
If your car was on empty and you had two choices:
1) You could leave it empty.
2) You could fill it up 1/4 of the way.
Which would you choose? Obviously, we would all choose to fill it up 1/4 of the way because leaving it empty would do nothing for us. The same goes with exercising. Something is always better than nothing👏 If you can't do it perfectly or you have to stop constantly to deal with your child or you're working out late at night and only have so much time or you have to modify the reps.
That is okay!!! Give yourself credit for what you are able to do and move forward.
Don't beat yourself up. Consistent effort my friends.
Daily consistent effort. Keep it up!

Then off to spend the morning snowboarding with my 15 year old daughter. I would’ve snapped a picture but it was too cold to take my gloves off 😂🤦🏼♀️.
Mamele Message for Today:
Three thoughts I wanted to share for mindset today:
1)You either spiral up or spiral down.
Each action that we take is followed by another one, and that section action we take either spirals us up or down.
Example: if you miss a workout one day, the next day you can choose to miss another one or you can choose to workout. One decisions spirals you up closer to where we want to be, and the other one spirals you down further away from you are wanting to be.
Choose to spiral up! Don’t let the all or nothing mindset stop you from keep making small choices to spiral up to the person you want to be.
2) Never underestimate the power of a small pivot.
If something isn’t working for you, the answer is probably a lot smaller and simpler than what you’re thinking. The key to success is not life altering huge decisions every day but rather small adjustments performed consistently rather than quitting.
If something seems to not be working, ask yourself what’s one small thing you can do to help or make it better?
3) Build your mindset muscles
We all focus on building our muscles on our body and this takes a long time! The same goes for our mind, in order to mentally become tougher we MUST work out our mind each day. We don’t all of a sudden have endless will power or motivation or discipline. It’s continually doing those things we say we’re going to do and sticking to our commitments to keep strengthening our “mindset” muscles.
Build the mindset muscle to bounce back quickly.
Build the mindset muscle of never giving up.
Build the mindset muscle of not thinking in an all or nothing way.
It takes practice and daily work. It doesn’t happen overnight. But it’s life changing.
