Day 24 of 75 Hard was a great one! I always love the weekends — everything about this challenge just feels so much more manageable when I’m not balancing work and family life at the same time. I got everything done today without much struggle, but I did learn something important about my focus.
While doing my morning reading, I sat in the living room while my husband watched SportsCenter, and I realized my mind just doesn’t focus well on non-fiction when there’s noise or distractions around me. It took me nearly twice as long to get through my 10 pages! I think I need to start carving out quiet, secluded time for reading from now on.
For my indoor workout, I decided to really push myself with a strength training video from Growingannanas on YouTube — and wow, it was a killer. It felt amazing to hit my physical limits and see what I could do when I pushed harder than usual.
One thing I’ve noticed lately is that I’m not hungry all the time anymore. Even though I’m eating clean and definitely less than before, I’m not constantly craving food. Maybe my brain is just too busy staying focused on all these other goals!
Key Lesson of the Day: Finding focus and pushing your limits can transform an “ordinary” day into a breakthrough.
