Day 14:: The {21} Challenge



Day 14:: Can you believe it? 2 weeks ago we started on Day 1. And here we are....at the home run stretch. Yes. only a week left! The countdown is on...I have to say..I'm enjoying it. It has taken me 2 weeks to really enjoy how I feel w/o sugar & sodas! But, it feels good, although, everyday is still a struggle....I have to concentrate!

...concentrate on the present moment. Remind myself that I love this feeling of succeeding! That the present moment is everything right now....that it is what will get me to my goal.


today: week 2. Check in....tell me how you are doing & what you plan on doing to concentrate on success to get you to the end!

Happy Day 14!

    This is great! I need precisely to concentrate on my main goal: been more organized (establishing priorities is my key here) and do not disperse in related things...

    Thank you Rhonna! great inspiration and beautiful art as always!

    "concentrate"...that's perfect for me today. i almost got side-tracked on my goals yesterday - too many fresh baked chocolate chip cookies in my kitchen! *wink* been going strong. i must concentrate on what i've already achieved and how awesome it will feel to have a superstar finish! thanks rhonna!

    I have mostly stayed on track ..just a couple of little blowouts on the food front, but importantly I got right back on track instead of feeling defeated and giving up! Thanks for keeping us inspired!

    Love this quote. It is easy to think of the past and future not "concentrate" on the present! Thanks!

    This quote could not have come at a better time. Tip of advice to all challenging yourself, read Eckhart Tolle's, A New Earth!!! It is great inspiration!

    Day 14 already. Today it doesn't seem like it...some days have been a struggle for sure. But I am very proud to say I have gotten out and done my walk every single day! And last night a friend called to see if she could come with me today!! So fun to inspire others!!! Thanks for the beautiful artwork everyday. Need to catch up on my journal & posting pics on my blog :)

    Perfect quote for today. I had been doing great-HUGE strides in battling my fear and living each day it's fullest! However yesterday was the best and worst day all rolled up into one! Todays quote couldn't be anymore accurate for my situation. So I will pick myself up- dust myself off and CONCENTRATE on TODAY! ;)

    checking in here.
    using effort and enthusiasm to work my plan today. avoiding looking back on my history as a guide to what the future will be. courage and perseverance are my battle cries currently.
    so thankful!

    I just love the artwork you are coming up with. I have been following along faithfully and have been successful which is awesome. I haven't really been keeping an art journal but I am looking forward to starting one. I have found that it is both inspiring and empowering to see creativity put to such practical use.

    I'm concentrating on that finish line and beyond. Knowing I've gone 2 weeks without coffee makes me feel that I can go even further even though my husband ordered coffee (before I became a 21er)and it arrived today it is sitting unopened!

    Well I'm getting there...just posted pgs 9 & 10...will get caught up this week...still inspired and still creating every day...just was not up to full potential with headache over the weekend. Not feeling stressed about my progress...because I just don't do that sort of thing...my house is a "drama free" zone. Have a great week Rhonna...and thanks a bunch. R
