Motivation Mondays: Resolution Check-In

Source

Hi friends! Happy Motivation Monday! Let's start the week strong and inspired by reviewing our accomplishments thus far and goals for ourselves. It wasn't too long ago we all made New Years resolutions to cut sugar from our diets, eat more greens and exercise AT LEAST 4 times a week. How are your resolutions coming along? I know it's easy to fall off the wagon but let's not forget to get back on!

For those of you that have abandoned your resolutions and vow to do it right next year, you're not alone! According to a 3 year study conducted by Gold's Gym, February 7th has been dubbed as the 'fitness cliff' -  the day most resolutions are ditched and unhealthy habits are embraced with familiarity and comfort [source]. Most people give up on resolutions for one reason or another. Let's face it, change is hard! But with the right amount of work and effort success can be yours!

The 'Love Yourself' Challenge

Are you up for a challenge? It's February and love is in the air! Love yourself this month, we dare you. 'Hah, you call this a challenge??', you say? Easier said than done, my friends. What did you do today that wasn't for your boss, a family member, client, or friend? Probably nothing. But the good news is, you're reading this post and you're already one step closer to loving yourself!

*Side Note: Before I get into the challenge, what are your thoughts on Valentine's Day? So many people are against this 'commercial holiday' that it's actually kind of ironic because it turns the day of love into a day of hate. It's just a special day in the year that serves to remind us to appreciate the people in our lives. So be happy on this day doing whatever it is that you enjoy, either spending it solo, with your friends, family, SOs, whoever your loved ones may be. Don't forget to love yourself this Vday by doing something special just for you.
