4/18 Whole Life Wednesday

Jessie looking so strong overhead! We've been practicing OHS and doing OH mobility for a week and a half now. Today, it will be apparent very quickly who's been on the OH mobility challenge and who has not. 
We are just a few days into our Spring Whole Life Challenge and it's so fun to talk to all of you motivated people! I love the beginning of these challenges. Everyone is super psyched to figure out how they're going to make their lifestyle better. No one is seriously suffering, yet, from the carb flu. We feel invincible. Get ready! A shift is about to happen:-) 
This week's well being practice is to identify something you want to accomplish during the day. The instructions are simple:

1. Each morning, identify for yourself what “success” for the day would look like.
2. Use your own personal standards for success. Some examples include: completing incomplete actions, getting to the gym after work, having a conversation you’ve been avoiding, getting your pile of clothes to the cleaner. There is nothing too big or too small. What would make you feel successful today?
3. Write it down.
4. Get it done by the end of the day.

The WLC folks this is an important practice because:

"Do you ever get to the end of the day and wonder if you did anything meaningful? You probably got a lot done, but was it all in a rush? A repeat of the actions you do every day just to keep up?

It’s not uncommon for us to declare what success in the far-flung future would look like, but it’s relatively rare that we approach our days the same way. Yet, it’s virtually impossible to get to that successful future without a series of successful days along the way.

There is no absolute definition of “success.” It’s different for all of us, and it may vary from day to day. It’s easy to paint a too-grand a picture of success or to discount the small daily triumphs. Therefore, planning for and celebrating the completion of something can be a practice in the kind of mindset it takes to be successful, on your terms.
​
Taking on a practice of acknowledging the things that make your life work — from getting big projects done to just making sure there is coffee for the morning — is a way of focusing your energy on actually doing the things that make your life work. Starting your day pointed in a direction is a much surer way of ending up where you want to end up and shaping your life to look the way you want it to look".
