That’s an awesome picture with you and your friends getting certificates. I hope you do well on your finals. Summer will give you more time to catch up on numbers. You are entering your last quarter of the challenge. Keep up the good work.

You’ve had a lot on your plate with school, work, and the OneHeart Challenge! You’ve managed your time and the stresses of it all well.

Olivia, is that Elinor standing next to you? It appears you both have a lot of “fruit salad” (ribbons) on your JROTC uniforms! It appears you two like to excel no matter what you do! Good luck with finals!

So excited to see you go through this journey!

Congratulations on starting the black belt challenge. The first week is difficult because your body has to get used to all the extra exercise you are doing. Your body will adapt. You just have to give it time. I am here if you need advice or support. See you in the dojo.

I can already see your commitment to this test in your training in class and also the extra work you are putting in by coming to the dojo early, on the weekends, and staying after class to get your numbers in. You won’t always be excited to put the work in, but if you maintain this consistency in your self-discipline, it will carry you to the finish line for sure!

Woohoo! Way to get through week 1, Elinor! Great effort to start the challenge! Remember, we will be doing this quite a while. We simply have to pace ourselves 🙂

Congratulations on starting the black belt challenge. This will be a challenging year but, it is 100% worth it. You will learn much about yourself and grow. I wish you success on this journey. If you need advice or support I am around.

Welcome aboard Gail-San! I know we are on the other side of the country, but we have your back!
