But what if I FAIL?!

Happy Monday everyone!! We made it to Utah safe and sound and are excited to spend a few days here. I almost forgot how AMAZING these mountains are. 

The past few years have been A LOT of hard work. They have not been many tears shed and sweat and hard work put into reaching our goals. We're not quite there yet but we have made so much progress together. And you know what the best part is? We have FAILED along the way.

Wait, did I just say that was the BEST part?? Yep, I sure did!!  No matter how dedicated we are to our goals or how self motivated we are it is nearly impossible to completely avoid the 'F' word: failure.

Failure can shape and motivate us and we might even find that things end up working out better than we ever could have imagined. Michael Jordan said, "I've failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed." What a great attitude to have!!

The next video in my 'Goal Diggers' series is about what I've learned about failure and how to manage it and use it for motivation. If you're interested in joining one of my upcoming challenge groups then click here for a brief sign up form to get notified of what is happening next.

Workout Wednesday: Hook 'n Eye

Ready to kick some butt?? This week I'm featuring a move called the Hook 'n Eye and it is great for abs, shoulders and legs if you get deep into your lunge (and good for grumpy days when you feel like punching something!!).
