@ Wild Lotus: You absolutely must FOCUS on what you can do. What you focus on is what magnifies. Our brains / psyches are going to dwell on something no matter what. What it dwells on is within our control. We consciously CHOOSE what to dwell on all the time. Simply dwell on what you CAN do, then simply do it.

I’m not dead yet! I have finished days 28 & 29 of the ab challenge. I swear I’m going to finish the ab challenge and the Start Challenge. Yep, I’m in true form, i.e., I’m fast and furious out of the gate and then I s l o w, creep, grab for the finish. I think I heard T. Harv Ecker say “How you do anything is how you do everything.”
What I have left to do is day 30 of the ab challenge and days 28, 29, 30 of the start challenge.
I declare that:
I will complete day 30 of the ab challenge and day 28 of the start challenge today (10/23/14);
I will complete day 29 of the start challenge tomorrow (10/24/14);
I will complete day 30 of the start challenge on 10/28/14.
There. I have my word at stake and a clear, realistic plan. Success is mine. I CAN do this (and so can you, damn it). 😀 -
Completed Day 26 & 27. It wasn’t my strongest day, but I attempted everything at least 2-3 times. …just stay focused on what I CAN do…

Go,’bunny. Go,’bunny. Woo hoo!

Day 25 & 26 of the ab challenge done! Yes, I am still in the game. It took me three days to feel mostly recovered from last Saturday. Gads. I have this lateral epicondylitis that flared it’s ugly head after the extra poling last Saturday. That shit is slowin’ me down, dang it. I’m a body worker and it is killing me that I have not ‘cured’ it yet with my trigger point super-powers. lol.
Yesterday I got half way through day 25 of the take-off challenge. Only half way because I was interrupted by my new duties as the pole studio. They invited me to be the front-desk person three days a week (4.5hrs / week) in exchange for a free membership! Score! That is the perfect little gig for me. 🙂 So now I have to reorganize my own pole time. I’m going to complete both these challenges no matter how long it takes me. -
Star Date Day 25 : Well, today was the day. I thought I would be immune from this day, but today was the first day that I missed doing any of the ab / take-off challenge. Yep. I kicked my own ass today. I totally wasn’t present to getting the challenge work done at the pole studio (I do not have a home pole) between the pole class and the choreography workshop. (They were both so much fun.) On top of doing twice as much pole as I am yet accustomed to, I moved up a level on my Reformer Pilates practice. (Subconsciously, I had earlier decided I was not going to do the challenge exercises because of the extra exercise load.) On top of that, I think I needed a down day about three days ago. So, no challenge exercises today and none tomorrow, I do declare. I will resume and finish on Monday, with day 25. Between now and then you can find me squirming around on my foam roller / Yamuna balls. 😀

Day 24 down! I’m a little pooped.

Day 23 down. 🙂

Whatever day it is, it’s d o n e.
(Naw, I think it’s day 22) 😀 -
I just completed your survey and shared it with my pole studio sisters. 🙂
What a fun project! I want your job. 🙂 -
Day 22 done. Sometimes I have the best workouts when I just go do it even though I don’t really feel like it. Integrity pays. 🙂 woop woop.

Vdub : when I can deadlift into a shoulder mount I’m gonna cry. I’ve been using visualization to forward my progress and I cry just imagining I can do some of the intermediate/advanced accomplishments. lol. Pole stirs something deep in my soul. It touch, moves inspires all of my souls…

Yeah! We SO got this. Bam!

That sounds like a good plan, Juicy Dior. Also, it sounds like you and I are at about the same level – I’m at the point of working on sits and climbs, too. Hello, Pole Sister. 😉

Day 20 declared complete. 🙂
