It's TishTrek Day #5... and the BIG VIRGIN GoZone STEP CHALLENGE starts today! I woke up repeating my family's motto: "You are able, if you think you are!" "You are able, if you think you are!" And then threw the covers over my head and screamed, "What the heck am I doing??!"
What if I end up the biggest loser who can't log enough steps to keep my team happy or in the running for those awesome prizes?! I can see myself on January 28th sending little notes of apology to my entire team with the $50 Visa Gift Cards that they could NOT win because of me! Healthy fruit baskets will follow... Oh gosh - Could it be that I joined a group challenge too soon?
Hey wait one minute... Hold it right there! How come whenever we're trying to do something good for ourselves... visions of losing stalk us like a hot flash in the night?! Who am I doing this challenge for anyway? If this is my personal 51/51 Challenge, how come I'm worried about what everyone else will think of me?
This journey to health and wellness is too important for me to worry about what other people might think. Let the stepping begin...
Doing the best I can will be good enough.
Best regards,
Everybody's Cousin Tish
Score: 4/51
