I just did my first 4/48 hour challenge from Friday 8am - Sunday 8am and I found so many benefits that I wanted to share with everyone. Thank you David Goggins for coming up with this challenge. Every 4 hours on the hour complete a physical exercise for 30 minutes. So, I started at 8am Friday with a walk, 12pm was a workout and 4 pm I rode my stationary bike and then 8pm, 12am, 4am, 8am on it goes for 48 hours. The biggest challenge was not the exercise, even though it was 8x more exercise then I normally do in one day, but the lack of sleep and operating my day without crashing out. (Nap is your friend). Here are the five benefits and realizations I had - 1. My body is capable of so much more then I realize. 2. I need less sleep then I think. 3. Clarity and awareness are heightened when you are engaging in your life. 4. Peace and harmony shows up in the quiet. 5. I am so excited to continue to try more challenges and make myself science experiment. The takeaway is you are so much stronger then you could have ever imagined and getting outside our comfort zone has so many advantages. What are your thoughts on challenges and stressing your mind and body?

When you make the connection that you don't have to let the circumstances of your life dictate to you the thoughts and emotions. You are in control of your emotions and get to decide how they will make you feel. It takes practice, but the life you want is on the other side of the effort you are not willing to put in. Wooooohooooo

Too often we are nicer to everyone else, but ourselves. Do one nice thing for yourself today and treat yourself with respect and dignity. It will go along way for your mental fortitude.

We are all working long hours, taking care of our families, growing, winning, failing and changing to become the best versions of ourselves. We pour everything we are into our business, family, relationships, online communities, friends and making money and wonder why we are so tired and burned out at the end of the day. This is because you are constantly pouring from an empty cup. I am looking for strong and dedicated people who want to learn how to protect their peace, show up to life and have plenty of energy to be used as you choose. Learn to make it a habit. If we don't choose our self growth and positivity then the world will choose for you.

So many of us are working hard, grinding, showing up for others and giving everything we have. So, Why do so many of us neglect are self care and specifically our mental health? If your car has a flat tire or needs fuel then we fix this problem. Please keep your body and mind tuned up with intentionally practicing kindness to ourselves. Make it a habit with Coach Cary
