MAYbe I CAN” Challenge

Hey Tumblr I’m serving up another mental/physical challenge for the month of May.

The Challenge:

Pick something you’ve been wanting to do for your mental or physical well being. It can be something you’ve been wanting to get back to doing or just wanting to try but just never started.

Do that thing for 15 minutes EVERYDAY in the month of May. Just 15 minutes that’s it.

Keep it feasible and within the realm of possibility given your circumstances. But it should also be somewhat challenging and give you a sense of accomplishment.

Here’s some basic Physical or Mental Examples to help get you thinking.

15 minutes of walking or running. Workout or exercise, Meditation or yoga. Reading, crafting, doing a favorite pastime you just don’t make time for anymore and so on. Whatever it is it should have a positive mental/physical effect on your day to day life.

Staying Accountable:

Keep accountable by reblogging and adding onto daily posts. OR journal your own daily updates about what you did in your 15min. Use the tag #maybe i can to make it easier for others to find or tag me @m0tiv8me. If you wish to keep it more private and not post publicly feel free to DM me updates and I’ll respond with some words of encouragement.

Of course anyone is welcome to spend more than 15 minutes on their chosen activity if they wish. But aim for at least 15 minutes each day.

The GOAL:

The purpose of this challenge is to foster healthy habits through consistency and hopefully open the door to long term improved mental/physcial quality of life. Big changes often start small and it’s easy to become overwhelmed in this busy world. Take 15 minutes of time for yourself each day and start to believe “Maybe I Can” do those things I’ve always wanted to do.

What Next:

Simply add a 💙 emoji in the comments if you want in and you’ll be tagged in upcoming posts. Goal report and check in is Monday April 29th. Day 01 post goes up Wednesday May 1st at Midnight. So start thinking of what your 15 minutes will be used for and spread the word and let’s get a community of like minded people helping to encourage and cheer each other on for the month of May!

Any questions? Just ask!

A few more pushups than yesterday. Lower sets and slowed my pace down and focused more on form and feeling the targeted muscles contract and squeeze. Definitely fatigues the muscle quicker than just rapidly cranking through them. 125 crunches and more stretching to fill up the 15 minutes. My day just started and I’m already winning! Happy Humpday!💪

Keep putting your positive vibes out there! Sometimes when I’m feeling low… I’m just not in the mood to engage. But I see nothing but good vibes from you & trust me people notice & appreciate you!

Thanks you, I really needed to hear this. Appreciate it!🙏

It’s probably my overthinking anxiety kicking in but it seems people are hesitant to engage in the comments with me.

I hope I’m not giving off any cautionary or concerning vibes. I also hope I’m not coming across as too bothersome or forceful in comments. Just doing my best to offer support and cheer people on while being considerate of boundaries.

If people are concerned about saying or doing the wrong thing, don’t be. I’m a pretty easy going chill guy and I’ll politely make the line known if I feel anyone crosses it.

Then again if you’re like me and overthink and worry about saying the wrong thing almost constantly than I totally get it… It something I’m actively working on doing better at.

Hey just found you, luv the blog!❤️

Is it too late to join your May challenge thing? What do I need to do to start? Thnx

Thank you, no it’s not too late anyone is welcome to join at anytime. The pinned post on top of my blog gives all the details but basically just pick an activity that has a positive mental/physical impact on your day and do it each day for 15 minutes.

Then for added accountability reblog each days post and add an update or update in the comments or post your own. Whatever you are most comfortable with. That’s it, I’ll add you to the daily tags.

Thanks for reaching out and welcome to the challenge!

I knew those numbers couldn’t keep going up forever. Didn’t feel like I had quite the energy this morning as the past six days. I’m ok with it though, still got 129 push-ups and 125 crunches. Nothing to be ashamed of and a good use of 15 minutes to start my day. 💪😎
