I thought I didn't need to.
I thought 'I've only just done them 3 months earlier in Round 1 I don't need to do them again so soon... wrong!
So now that I'm at the beginning of Round 3, here are my pre-season tasks to date.
Task 1

You know you want it...
You deserve it...

Ignore it all and stay strong.
External Excuses Within My
Control

achieving my goals, and to not making excuses.
I commit to working on my fitness by continuing to have personal
training each week, and by walking a minimum of 5km at least twice a week. I am committed to do the work to get me
there.
Task 5
Kitchen Makeover
This was the tough one for me in Round 1, and didn't really get done. It didn't get done in Round 2 either! So this time is going to be different. BM is working tomorrow so I'll have plenty of
time to get the pantry cleaned out. I
don't think it'll be too bad, even though I didn't do it last time around, we
have slowly stopped buying all the crap that'll do the damage. I guess I'll see tomorrow.
As for the rest, well, I can only do so much in one day
and right now my brain is turning to mush...
Ah Annie, how's that pantry going? Did it get a good clean-out Friday? I've got to re-take my before photo as mum took a fuzzy one for me... almost done all my pre-season tasks.
ReplyDeleteI ashamed to say I didn't do it on Friday, but I DID do it on Sunday! It got a good clean out, scrub and re-organisation, it looks lovely now. Thanks for keeping me honest P.Penny.
ReplyDeleteAnnie, I think the pre-season goal setting is key, the commitment to yourself is golden. Great job.
