as someone who classifies herself as a competitive person, i realize that i must reach my goal(s) to make myself happy. of course, there are other ways that i find happiness, like surrounding myself with good people. but you shouldn't rely on others to make you happy. rely on yourself.
recently, i've been getting a lot of videos about 75 hard on my social media and if you're unfamiliar with this challenge, here are the rules.
- follow a diet (with no alcohol or cheat meals)
- complete 2, 45-minute workouts a day (one indoor, one outdoor)
- drink one gallon of water
- read 10 pages of a non-fiction book
as you can see, it is extremely demanding and requires you to be extremely disciplined for the duration of the challenge which is around 3 months. yes, the process must be grueling, boring, and at some point you must get unmotivated, but the fact that these people are able to continue pushing is fantastic.
after completing 75 hard how do you think these people feel?
i think it of course, makes them overjoyed with the fact that they were able to prove to themselves that they can do hard things, but are also happy with their outcome.
maybe their goal was to lose weight, or gain muscle, or maybe just to complete 75 hard. but as the name entails, 75 hard is HARD. you should be happy with themselves for simply just completing the challenge. some of these people were probably not feeling like they were ready for 75 hard, yet they threw themselves into it and they should pat themselves on the back for that.
so, this is your sign to do something hard and to step outside your comfort zone. if you "fail" at this, try again. keep trying until you get an outcome that you are happy and proud of. do it for yourself.
i hope you enjoyed today and i'll catch you on the next one!!
don't wish for it, work for it.
