The successful young American fiction writer Rachel Cohn recently said: “There’s no such thing as ready; there’s only willing”. Wow, isn’t that so true?! Three months ago, neither of us really felt ready for winter – now it’s almost something of the past and we have made it! 93 members
finished our 12-week Ultimate You Winter Challenge successfully and so many had incredible journeys and success stories. (ALL RESULTS IN THIS WEEK’S BLOG!)
Now we are in the second half of the year which is, in fact, more important than the first six months – you can still make all your 2019 dreams come true. Yes, you can, if you set out to do all you can to achieve your goal. Yes, you can, if you don`t sit in a corner waiting but instead seek and pursue every opportunity. Just remember – no matter how many people believe or don`t believe in you, you must be the ultimate believer in yourself.
A hearty welcome to all our new members:
Nomfundo Malinga, Nikemari Viljoen, Marzé Wentzel, Salmi Jacobs, Alicia Classen, Chantelle Beukes, Joey Klopper, Dineo Makoena, Maimoona Danka, Khomotso Makgoga, Nastacha Kuhl and Rina Clifford.

…Only a few months are left in 2019… Professional athletes that deliver in crunch time are labelled “clutch.” It takes a strong-minded player to shoot an important shot with the game on the line or go for the “Hail Mary” pass with only seconds remaining on the clock. Believe it or not, we all need
the same type of mentality to finish the year on a high note….
Actions speak louder than words – I promise to keep on setting the example – all you`ll need to do is show up. You might find yourself tempted just to coast to the end thinking, “I’ll just save my
mental energy and start fresh in the new year.” But the last quarter, like the last few miles of a race, is a great time to dig deep and aim to excel. Much can be accomplished in a few short weeks. Take a deep breath – you’ll find the strength for one more burst of speed. Remember…
“If the word quit is part of your vocabulary, then the word finish is likely not.” B.G. Jett
“Starting strong is good. Finishing strong is epic.”- Robin Sharma
