Challenge Me

So many of you may or may not know that I thrive on competition and accountability. I just joined another weigh in challenge two days ago - it's teams of two and winner takes home a pot of 2400 buckaroos! My partner is Christina. It's kind of funny, our relationship. A now good friend I hold dear, was once my husband first Prom Date! Funny, right? Here's a little more added humor, my daughter and her son like to hate each other... my daughter has a crush on her son! It's really crazy the people that Beachbody have brought into my life and how much I love that I am around a lot of like minded people, from faith to fitness! My challenge is 30 days, I am really excited about it! My husband is totally on board with me and I have been shoving my face full of fruit, veggies, and Shakeology and ya know that? I LOVE it. So keep me accountable guys!

I posted about my resolutions and goals for the up and coming year. I joined another personal challenge lead by Chalene Johnson. A 30 day push challenge. It really just helps you focus on your goals and create a way to get there without going crazy! I am determined. I really want it. I want to succeed in a job I really do love and I want to be present in every aspect of my children's life!

Today was Day One.
Today was an overview of what the 30 day PUSH challenge will hold. Our homework was this: think about what you would want to be remembered by, what do you want people to know you for, what principles guide you, what is your calling?
My kids. Everything I do, I do around my kids. I never want to work in a building where my kids are not until they all are in school. Until they all are so self sufficient I don't feel bad not helping them!
My faith. I try to raise my kids in church. I want them to know its more than knowing who Jesus is but believing in the entirety of Him. I could write an awful lot on the ways I know God exists and answered prayers I have seen and miracles I am watching in the making. All things are given and taken away by God and I pray that my life shows my belief in Him. I am a work in progress and I am thankful for all the grace and mercy that is shown to me, daily.
My family. There are so many times I would love to just pick up and move, but I don't. Why? My family. I don't know what I would do with out them. We put the FUN in dysfunctional! It may not be perfect, but its precious.
Service and presence. I want people to remember me and know me by my willingness to serve and be present. Not to get an atta-boy, but I want people to remember that I was a servant and tried to lead by example. I want to show success in my business because I am wanting to help others.  Did my kids see me helping others.... did they see me helping them?

This year is going to be more than just changing physically - I want it to be mentally, emotionally, and spiritually.

Here's to transformation 2013. I expect slip ups, I expect triumphs and I expect success because I expect to push forward!
