Day 8 - A productive day - coaching, cleaning, tying up several paperwork loose ends, handling Toastmasters for the evening, getting in my 'Morning Miracle' routine, and staying perfectly good on my eating plan for the first time in weeks - no popcorn, no candy, no chips, just protein.
I've had a great deal of momentum going for the last 36 hours, which I look forward to carrying into today. Momentum is a bit of a tricky concept - doesn't take more than a few bumps or sudden turns to cause us to hit the brakes, or stop altogether. I know that's been a major challenge for me. But if we get enough speed going, slowing down won't affect our overall performance, and stopping will be less likely. Upgrade our emotional shocks, and those bumps may send us airborne, but we'll still come down to the road in good shape. By not allowing the tread on our goals get too old, we'll keep our traction on those sudden turns life throws at us, without needed to stop.
How is your momentum? What is your Big Hair Audacious Goal right now. Even for just today? Let me know you're out there - and comment here, or in our FB group!
