I’ve got a weird tip today to help you make every day a great day … and set your mindset up for success.
I actually gave this challenge to a few of my clients, and this ONE small thing helped them build confidence and stay on track with their goals.
Here it is. (I’m going to tell you why it works below.)
- Start AND end each day with 10 reps of your favorite exercise. (Could be squats, push-ups … you name it!)
- Start AND end each day by writing down what you’re grateful for.
- Start each by writing down your intention for the day … AND end that day by reflecting on how it went.
It’s not the specific WHAT that you choose that matters… it’s the WHY.
Starting and ending your day with an intentional good-for-you action sends a strong message to your mind that you are serious about your goals.
Taking a small, positive action at the beginning (and end) of each day will help set you up for SUCCESS because:
1) it doesn’t take much time, and
2) it’s ACHIEVABLE.
Try this for ONE MONTH and see what a difference it makes for you!
The fact is, motivation doesn’t just happen. It’s something that gets stronger the more you use it (just like your muscles). It takes regular upkeep.
When you have quick wins … and you begin to see (and feel!) your work paying off, it can help drive you forward to even MORE success.
If you were to take on this challenge, what one small action would YOU commit to?

One bad night of sleep can do WHAT?!
I have some good news and bad news when it comes to your sleep habits…Ready for the bad news first? If you’re someone who has the occasional late-night Netflix binge or accidentally scrolls on social media until the wee hours of the morning from time to time…It may...
Carrot vs. stick
Which motivates you more: Running toward something you want (a “carrot”) OR Running away from something you want to escape (a “stick”)?
What to order at the drive-thru window
Has this ever happened to you? You’re on a road trip, or with family or friends, or maybe it’s a work trip
