We all know that we should be positive, but do you really know how positivity impacts you across your life? I wanted to give you ALL the reasons you need to work on this success habit because it is important for your mental and physical health.

Doing what challenges you the most to stay motivated may feel a little odd at first. One of the ways that this motivates you is by giving you a sense of accomplishment. There are plenty of good reasons that we give ourselves for not getting these things done. It makes complete sense in the moment to put it off, not make it a priority, and keep putting those things that challenge us off to another day.

So, we are going to go over some tools on how to get started taking on the things that challenge us so you can start to allow the challenges to excite you.  You must do those things that challenge you the most first.  The fear is what has been stopping you, but on the other hand, maybe you stopped challenging yourself at all. Are you pushing yourself? Do you have bigger goals? If you don't that's a different thing.  If you do and you know that you have been making excuses for not getting them done.  You must make them a priority.
