Max Monday’s are all about maximizing the day to set up the rest of the week for success. AND ALSO… because the theme is max, we are going to be doing a max effort something every Monday! So, this max Monday challenge is….. Max plank hold! How long can you hold a plank?! Elbows (harder version) or hands (push up position/easier version) pick one and give it your all! Moving on with maximizing the day.. So many people get the Monday blues feelin’ bummed when it’s Sunday night already. How cool would it be if everyone looked forward to Monday’s?! I know that’s a lot easier said than done, but you already know it’s coming so why not make it the best it can be?! What is something you already implement first thing on a Monday to set your day and/or week up for success?! I would like some suggestions and thoughts from everyone here. It can be on ANYTHING! Here is an example: I know a lot of people meal prep lunches/dinners for the week, so that sets them up for success in eating healthier and saving money throughout the week and not going out to lunch etc.. things like this are what I’m looking for! I definitely know I could use something that would help me focus for longer periods at a time. I’ve tried a bunch of different things, but nothing has quite stuck yet. I honestly love Monday’s. I love the feeling of coming off of the weekend refreshed and ready to keep taking steps towards my goals. So, rather than being bummed the weekend is over, I focus on it being the recharge I need to make the week as accomplished as possible, but that starts dwelling down drastically by Wednesday. So, I’m working on implementing new ideas to get that momemtum through the rest of the week! Ps. Currently on a plane and I’m slacking on my plank and will do it first thing in the morning and post my time!

Our community kick off starts with some Wisdom! The best of this hits with quotes. Everyone resonates with certain quotes in some way or another and the good ones stick. Here it goes: "Without struggle, there is no progress" - Frederick Douglass I have this tattooed on the right side of my body. I got it when I was 16. It has a flower with a dead pedal, then another flower above it in full bloom. Just because one pedal is dead and brown, doesn't mean the whole flower has to go down with it. Pretty deep for a 16 year old to come up with this analogy. I honestly kinda forget that I have this tattoo and what's crazy is it hits so much harder now as an adult and it's something I've been trying to remember as I go through my life of building a business now. I want to set the record straight that I'm completely happy and content with my life and what I have created. However, on the flip side... I am struggle bussin' HARD trying to get my Coach Bryleigh business going and this quote has been a great reminder that struggle is what we all have to go through in order to get the best results in the end. Learning how to push through the struggle and celebrate the small wins daily is what makes us move forward. This is what keeps the flower in bloom. If you know me, you know I'm extremely good at fitness. I have been my whole life. Everything fitness comes extremely easy to me. Because of that it's almost like I was expecting my business to just become super successful over night and come easy just like my fitness does... man was I wrong. Building a business is fucking HARD, but that's what makes it so fun. I'm learning SO much and we gettin' there day-by-day! This platform and everyone that has joined the group so far has been a reminder of just how much progress I have made and I can't thank you all enough for being here! So, I hope you can resonate or put this into good use for something going on in your life right now or if you have another quote that's resonating with you that you feel like could benefit the group on this fine Wednesday - please share below!
