Courage to keep going - Goal rush week 2

Today starts the second week of goal rush. If you have no idea what I'm talking about, check last weeks posts.

So how are you doing on your goal or goals? Now is a really good time to look at them and maybe adjust is needed. If one hour at the gym is just killing you, or it turns out that time is not on your side, maybe try making sure you get a half hour of some type of exercise. Mow the lawn, rake the leaves -- hit exercise and chores with one stone.

If you've stumbled a bit last week, (I've had my own blips as well) remember that we are not perfect people. The only way to lose goal rush is to give up and not even try. You can still succeed as long as you keep at it.

That is the whole point of the philosophy of finishing. Knowing that I might mess up, and that I won't be the best at something -- but pushing through to the finish. That means trying to reach those goals everyday, even if that pint of Ben and Jerry's found its way into my stomach somehow.

If it's tough, that's okay. Modify if you have to, but maintain your bravery and courage and do it anyway. At the end of the month I want all of my readers to look at the effort they've put in, not count all the days that they've messed up.

So keep it up. If you need some back up, friend me on Facebook and I'll be the nut cheering you on in the peanut gallery. Send me a line and let me know how I can help you.
