BLING, BIKINI’S AND BIG OLE GOALS!!!
by Andrea Wiggins
It was probably one to my toughest training times outside of boot camp and the police academy.
And it had to be! Because I was going to be on a stage, in a blinged out bikini, rocking out a pair of clear 4 inch stiletto's, walking back and forth across this stage, striking various poses, with a smile on my face....as I prayed I didn't trip!
And it...was...awesome!!!
I felt amazing, was in my best shape to date, and was soooooo glad that I had taken the time to really prepare for this moment. The chance to take my physique and my fitness to a new level that I was really proud of.
But none of that wouldn't have happened if I hadn't set that goal for myself. That goal of competing in a figure competition before I turned 40. The goal of training as hard as I could to create the best physique I could, to reach the next level in my personal fitness journey. It all started with me setting a goal for myself....and then creating a plan for making it happen!
So many times we make these casual statements about things we want to see happen in our life and think that somehow they are just going to HAPPEN just because we say we want them.
As we dive into this New Year, we all tend to do this inventory of what we have accomplished and what we want to do better.... which is a great practice. It's always beneficial to do some self-reflection.
But ladies, my challenge to you is this. Just ask yourself, what is that ONE THING that you have really wanted to do for yourself? Don't think about what you didn't do in this moment, ask yourself what is one thing you have really wanted to do?
Get a new or different job? Start your own business? Try a new sport? Take on a new hobby?
