Another great moment of self-discovery shared beautifully Clinton. We have a saying in coaching "relapse happens"--it means that even the most firmly established habit can get thrown off--typically by a life event. But as you pointed out, it's those who choose to "get back on the horse" in some fashion that succeed overall.

No one ever said walking or any healthy habit had to be an all or nothing proposition. 12K steps, 10K steps, 7K steps, it's all good. Which is actually what pre-programmed trackers don't take into account

I really appreciate this. That phrase “relapse happens” hits, because it takes the pressure off perfection and puts the focus back on returning. That’s been my experience for sure.

And I love what you said about steps. It really isn’t all or nothing, it’s just staying in motion. Appreciate you adding that perspective.

My pleasure Clinton. Keep up the great work.
