A little over 3 years ago, I was 47 years old and

A little over 3 years ago, I was 47 years old and was hurting all the time from not moving. Seemed like all I did was work on the computer and watch TV I recently quit all my physical activities. So as a challenge, I wanted to close all my rings on my apple watch for 30 days straight, so on September 1st, 2019, I started my challenge and made it 4 days before I failed, but I kept trying. The next day I closed all my rings was September 17th, and I failed again on September 19th to close them. Then on September 22nd, I was able to close all my rings.
Then made it 7 days straight!
Then 30 days!
Then 100!
Then 1 year.

Now I have successfully closed all my rings for 1200 days straight.

The moral of the story is it is ok not to hit your goal just keep trying. This being a new year, and with New year resolutions being set, don't quit just because you mess up one day or one week just dust yourself off and keep going

If you fall down 6 times, get up 7 times
