    Feeling a little unfocused. Trying to deal with my taxes. But I am doing everything possible to procrastinate. Running out of time.

    OMG I just figured out how to screen shot on my smart phone so I can stop doing double work between MFP and my Fitbit. This is epic!!!! Hey, I'm 50! It took me a minute to figure it out. LOLOLOL @jugar You can expect my posts to be more frequent now! Woo hoo!

    P.S. I had to do it on computer because I still couldn't figure out how to get it to post from my phone, but this is still progress! :blush:

    End of week reflections:

    .....

    As some of you saw, because @mari_moulin has stepped away for a while as moderator for F2F, I was asked to join the moderators, and I accepted. So far it is a blast - they are a great bunch and I am enjoying getting to know the other teams and captains. I really miss Mari! In order to make this work, I'd love it if my wonderful co-captain could take over the weigh-ins again - @BMcC9 could you do that? I'll keep on with the steps since they count in the baseball scores ....

    I will take over the weigh-ins as of Week 3 / Day 1 (aka tomorrow, Sunday April 14)

    Good work on making it to the mid-point of the month, everyone!

    Team Weight No More's Week 3 Group Challenge Today Matters

    omgl8uz38b0s.jpg


    A Four minute Four Circle goal setting tool
    Adapted from Steve Chandler's book "100 ways to motivate yourself"

    The Four Circle Method is a game changer if you suffer with the thought "I have so much weight to lose and it will TAKE FOREVER."

    This is a great tool that helps you plan what you will do today to get you to that far away goal. You see, most of us are just disconnected from the smaller version of ourselves. We can't believe that the little things we do today MATTER. We think things like, "This bite won't hurt" or "I’m done… weighing 150lbs will take forever so give me a cookie."

    The Four Circles basically trains your brain to believe how important today's tiny steps are. Yep...drinking the water matters versus our usual thought of drinking the water isn't enough.

    Instruction: Start by drawing four circles on a piece of paper (see example below). The circles represent one year, one month, one week, and today. Inside each circle write down what you want. It can be anything. Start with the one year circle first.

    The top left circle is the one year goal.
    The top right breaks that goal down into a smaller piece, a monthly goal.
    The bottom left is an even smaller piece, a weekly goal.
    The bottom right is EVERYTHING you are going to do today that will help you reach your goal.


    Without looking at our goals on a daily basis, we tend to lose sight of them and get caught up in reacting to people and circumstances, forgetting about our one year goal. If you hit your daily goal every day, your weekly goal is automatically hit. If your weekly goal every week is reached, the monthly goal has to happen If you hit your monthly goal every month, your yearly goal will be achieved.

    Ultimately, success is dependent upon just one of the circles: the circle labeled "today". When you realize the irrefutable mathematical truth contained in this system, you have just proved on paper that your day and your life are the same thing. There is no future other than the future you are working on today. Your future is not stranded out there somewhere in space.

    Now tell your team and share your goals. Every day matters. What will you do today?

    uowm98yw87cp.png

    Thank you for sharing your specific goals aready, @karenesg. I will work on mine later tonight. I am also going to be sharing this with another challenge group I am with. Seems to me ... offhand .... I could apply the same thing to NON-mfp challenges as well .... like regular, systematic studying for my Second Language Exams, or getting to the bottom of my mending pile ... or building up the savings account etc etc .....

    I will have to check out the whole book!

    SATURDAY BASEBALL - END OF WEEK 1 OF 2!

    1. @jugar 90 minutes, 15,000 steps = triple triple
    2. @jlbtnc
    3. @sue_01
    4. @micki48
    5. @Kittu125
    6. @fourathomej

    We had our very first warm day today - in the 60's Fahrenheit! Felt SO good. I walked and walked and walked - I love our road. It is a gravel road with few dwellings. In close to 2 hours, 3 vehicles passed by. The streams are now running like crazy, and the snow is finally starting to recede. Our pond has open water in a few spots now - the frogs will come up as soon as all the ice is off and we have a sunny day. It is my real indication that spring has arrived when that happens.

    No coat. Wow.

    OK, I'm done gushing now. Get those baseball stats in as early as you can so that @Navydaddjtc and I can crunch them up and show who is winning (WE ARE) tomorrow morning.

    No - it is in there - no worries! I probably just forgot to cut her name when I was pasting the list. How are your taxes coming along? And is the sun shining?
