TAKING ACTION: ✅Comment LET’S GO if you’re committed to locking in for the next six weeks before the holiday season arrives! The time is now, friends! We’re coming up on the official Fall season (next Tuesday!), and with it comes cooler temps followed by the holiday season! 😲 I don’t know how else to say this other than just to say it… The time is NOW. Next month brings Halloween. November brings Thanksgiving. December brings Christmas. SUGAR POISONING SEASON IS UPON US 😱 We have about six weeks before the madness begins, and the truth is, you can accomplish a lot in six weeks. If you lock in for the next six weeks, you can spend most of your holiday season maintaining your results. I don’t know about you, but that sounds like a good plan to me. As I’ve mentioned before, when you utilize your time and opportunity well throughout the year, you have more freedom to enjoy the holiday season. The time and opportunity are happening RIGHT NOW. Lock in and let’s go! 🔥

TAKING ACTION: ✅Share your weekly win in the comments below! I want to hear ‘em all, both big and small! 🎉 “Fight your brain’s negativity bias by appreciating and lingering on the tiny, positive moments you experience day-to-day.” ~Rick Hanson Take a moment to consider these questions today ⬇️ ➡️How many things can you consider as a win this week? ➡️How many things did you consider a failure this week? If I were a bettin’ woman, I’d bet that you can think of a lot more failures than wins… This is because humans are hardwired to focus on the negative. We have a negativity bias, and unfortunately, it causes us to place more emphasis on negative experiences than positive ones. This might be why some of you don’t show up every week to celebrate your weekly small wins. If science is correct, you’re far more focused on what you did wrong than what you did right—and even if you can think of something you did well, you probably brush it off as “not good enough”... Am I right or am I right? While negativity bias is something we all probably struggle with to a degree, the good news is that it’s totally changeable because your brain is neuroplastic—but it doesn’t happen without you putting in some effort. If you want to change your brain to focus on the positive, you must start focusing on the positive—and that means you should start celebrating even the smallest of wins each week. 💯

TAKING ACTION: ✅Choose one of the questions below and share your answer in the comments. We’re officially at the halfway mark of our STEPtember Challenge, and today, I want to hear from you! (Yes, that means even YOU.) 😉 While the past is in the past, it’s also true that it’s often beneficial to reflect on and assess the past couple of weeks. These questions will help you reflect, and if you’re honest with yourself, they will help you grow. ⬇️ 👉What version of yourself has shown up most consistently on the days you walked—and what version has quietly negotiated its way out of walking? 👉When you look back at the past two weeks, where did walking feel like something you did, and where did it start to feel like something you are? 👉What uncomfortable emotion or thought have you been walking with rather than walking away from—and how has that changed your relationship with the activity? 👉If the second half of this challenge required you to protect one specific (positive) mental habit you’ve begun forming, what would it be? Is there anything you need to stop doing to protect this positive habit? I always like to do a little mindset work on Mondays, and I highly encourage you to reflect on these questions today and write down your answers. Mindset work is the number one priority in this journey, and prioritizing it is the best thing you can do for your long-term success! 💯
