Legally Fit at One Year — Win the Day 201

When I recently told a friend that tomorrow marks the one-year anniversary of when I launched Legally Fit, she said, “Wow, that went by fast!”  My response, “Not for me, it didn’t!”  This is my 45th post of the year – far more than I ever imagined when I set out to do this.  It added a whole new layer to my life – all while working my day job as a lawyer, maintaining a very active fitness routine, and living life to the fullest.  And as I reflect back to where it all began, it so appropriately started with my Win the Day post.

Of all that I’ve shared over the past year, there’s no method, concept, or mantra that I find more important to the success of my journey than winning the day.  I really do ask myself every day what it takes to win it.  Sometimes I win and sometimes I lose.  But focusing on what winning the day means each day is more about being in the frame of mind for success than it is about the actual wins or losses.  I win more days because I define it at the beginning of the day than I would if I simply looked back afterwards and only then thought for the first time about what winning meant.
