WEEK 7: Review our past week of 21NLS and plan for weeks ahead!
While our challenge is set for 21 weeks, healthy living is for life. It’s about creating this healthy lifestyle that will sustain itself in the long-term, no matter what happens. 21NLS is meant as a trigger to help you jump-start your healthy living goals, via a combined platform where different individuals all around the world get together to achieve a healthier lifestyle.
Some people might face the problem where they face success with a renewed lifestyle for 1-2 weeks, then revert back to their old habits and behaviors after that. That’s because they see it as a short-term goal rather than a lifelong journey.
It’s normal to have disruptions in our diet, exercise and lifestyle goals. If you feel you have “fallen” off the wagon in the past few weeks, I want to let you know that it doesn’t matter. If you haven’t been able to catch up on some of the tasks, I want to let you know that it doesn’t matter either. Beating yourself up isn’t going to help you live a healthier life. The question isn’t about whether you met the target for the WEEK or not. The question is whether you have learned from what happened so that you’ll get better at doing it.
The question is whether you know what are the key actions to take to succeed in your plan moving forward.
So this week, we’re going to review our past week of 21NLS and plan for week 2 ahead!
