"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!
Friday Here We COME!

Just a little thought I wanted to share:
Remember that focus and intent on the TODAY will take care of the FUTURE goal.
You don’t even have to worry about the future goal if you focus on the intent NOW.
Everything else takes care of itself.
Stop spending energy worrying about things that you can’t control (the scale, your measurements, your pant size)
Focus your energy on what you CAN control.
Your eating, your workouts, your attitude.
I want you to ask yourself this question:
Why is anybody else more capable than you?!
The truth is nobody is.
You’re just as capable!
Everything you need is already inside of you.
It’s about harnessing it.
Developing it.
Building it.
Starting things AND failing.
Getting back up.
It’s okay to feel.
It’s okay to problem solve and process.
Learn to rest, not quit.
Keep showing up for Y O U

Unfortunately, today was my first day back to work since Christmas break which meant SITTING in a training ALL DAY! 😩 To top it off, there was a meeting held at my school after hours so I chose to stay at the school to work. As I sat down to my computer to begin working I checked my steps…close to 6,000. I knew my goal of hitting 10,000 steps wouldn’t happen unless I put in the time…and work so off I went! I paced the hall of my school for about 30 mins and was able to do it! 🙌🏻 Here’s to chasing goals in 2023!
