What is the GoShiggyGo "GSG"
Challenge?
Challenge?
Step 1) Work out for at least 30 minutes every day for 30 days.
Why 30 days? It takes 30 days to create a habit.
Will it hurt? It's YOUR pace. Usually, it's within the first 20 minutes when you want to give up. After 20 minutes you'll build momentum and as the saying goes "an object in motion stays in motion." Momentum baby!!!!
Step 2) Post a photo or video to your Facebook or blog.
Why? It make yourself accountable. If people see it, or rather, if they don't see you post, they will call you out. No one wants to be called out, so post.
Step 3) Repeat 1 and 2 for the next 30 days.
How can I make it fun?
-Wear a different hat every day for 30 days and show it off.
-Put on a new outfit that you are dying for everyone to see.
-Wear a t-shirt that you won at a race and tell the world about it.
-If you are video-taping then say something compelling and interesting like a quote or a proverb. Keep it absolutely fascinating.
-Change up your routine by doing a different exercise, like walking fast around and around and around the mall.
-Have your friend take a photo of you when you are looking unglamorous. No one is judging here. We are here to support.
-Remember, no one is forcing you, no one is making you do this. You are doing this because you choose to. THAT is power. That is accountability. THAT is responsibility. That is a start.
-Sure being on a treadmill or stationary bike can be monotonous and boring. Then watch a youtube video. Find a "how to" video and learn something. You can grow and exercise at the same time. I personally like motivational videos. One of my favorites is by Eric Thomas AKA ET The Hip Hop Preacher. Every Monday he does a 10-15 minute video entitled "Thank God It's Mondays." After watching that video 2-3 times, YOU are done with your workout. He has hundreds of videos to listen and watch. Very inspiring and it gets you pumped.
WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY. WIYW What Is Your Why?
What is your WHY?
If you know what your WHY is, then you hold the key to your own success.
The "Why" will unlock all the doors.
The "why" will determine how hard you try.
The "why" will determine in which direction you go.
The "why" will get you up in the morning, rather, the "why" will make you WANT to get up early in the morning.
The "why" is the most important thing that if not known, is holding you back.
Once you know your "why" you become a focused and unstoppable laser beam. Full steam ahead.
You ain't "perishing" because YOU have a VISION, for as Proverbs goes: "Where there is not vision, the people perish." You are striving. You are succeeding.

Your high IQ and logic and all that stuff between your head is good, but it's what is in your heart, your passion, that will ultimately get you to climb up YOUR Mt. Everest or whatever that climb may be. How passionate is YOUR why? Sure you can make millions and millions and accumulate "stuff" until your house is bursting at the seams with "things." Sure, you'd like to leave an inheritance. But wouldn't you rather leave a LEGACY
