Last year, I enjoyed the daily challenges that I set up for myself. I will say that it was mildly successful and I am happy with what I did. This year, I want to do better with those challenges. One of the things that I really want to work on this year is maintaining those challenges each month. I want to continue each challenge into the next month and sustain them throughout the year. I did not do that too much last year because I would be focused on the current month's challenge. It can seem overwhelming at times with trying to do up to 12 specific things every day and I realistically know that is not going to happen. I could, but chances are it will not. Still, I want to focus on incorporating these challenges into my routine so that they are a natural part of my day.
This month, I am going back to aerobic exercise of some kind each day. I have been getting out and walking some each day the last few days and I definitely feel better when I do that. It is not only about exercise, which is definitely good for me, but it is also about mental health. I don't look at my phone while I am out walking. I just focus on my surroundings and spend time thinking about different things. It's time that I'm not doom scrolling or worrying about things I have no control over. That is good for me. And yes, the exercise is good too. I know that this year I will probably face some health changes that need to be made. I will let you know more after I see my doctor next week. But I want to go ahead and build a foundation of aerobic exercise that I can build upon. We shall see!
