How many times have you declared a change/new habit you’d like to see in your life – you start out with a lofty promise/declaration and lots of motivation but over time for a whole host of reasons, some of those new habits just don’t stick? Sound familiar?
Last week Marcia from Marcia’s Healthy Slice announced a great challenge for the final three months of the year — to make one small change each week. The trick is to stick with whatever change you’ve made while adding a new change the following week. Love this idea! While I feel like I’ve been pretty good at tackling some of my bigger goals this year – I still find there are some nagging things that I just can’t seem to get a handle on…like the paper clutter that has taken over various parts of my house despite my best intentions!
For week 1, I decided to return to doing daily planks – that way I ensure that no matter what other exercise I may or may not do, I’ll get some core work every day. And I’m happy to say, that with the exception of Saturday when I took my big tumble, I got my planks done. For week 2, I’m going after some of that aforementioned paper clutter by trying to keep my coffee table clear and organized.
Marcia will be hosting a link-up every Tuesday…and there will even be prizes if you need a little extra push 🙂
Yay for daily planks and thanks so much for linking up! Small changes add up to BIG results!
Yup, planks are a great daily challenge! Good for you. And good luck with the clutter, too.
Ahh, a good reminder that goals do not always have to be huge. I like the idea of a weekly goal! I will definitely check out this challenge and thanks for the reminder to get back on the “plank wagon” 🙂 Good luck with your challenges 🙂
I love this idea! I feel some old habits creeping back in and I do not like it!! I love the idea of finishing off the year strong!
