Day 20: May 1, 2017
Challenge: Rest day
Half way through the challenge I decided that I needed a break. I'd been challenging myself to step really far outside of my comfort zone for nearly three weeks, and doing that is exhausting. Even though I took a break out of tiredness, it was still a good reminder that I can't finish everything all at once. Scheduling, planning, and implementing rest periods is just as important as everything else that I do in working on my goals to improve myself. I forget this skill, and quite often find myself burning out and ultimately quitting the things that I wanted to accomplish. This 40to40 challenge is the first big project in a very long time that I completed all the way to the finish line, and I don't think I would have been successful without taking a break.

Taking a rest day because I have two things scheduled for tomorrow. #40daysto40 #birthdaychallenge #stillworkingonit #onlythehardthingsleft— Stacy Mayren (@StacyLeeSnider) May 2, 2017
