What health contender means

Hey there,

I want to extend my gratitude for joining me in this newsletter. Your responses have made taking the first steps to initiating this community feel much less daunting. Anita Joy Notes as a newsletter felt significant as a way to jointly explore with you and others the idea of being a health contender.

Being a health contender isn't just about competing – it's about competing with yourself to conquer challenges. Think of it as embracing change, learning from experiences, and always striving to improve.

Remember Marlon Brando's iconic line, "I coulda been a contender"? While not the same context, the sentiment applies – contending is about growth, no matter the outcome.

A key trait of a health contender is self-assessment. Reflect on your actions, adjust, and act on what you've learned. But remember, it's action that drives growth, not just reflection.

Have you achieved goals by analyzing patterns and adapting? That's what health contenders do. Learn from patterns, tweak strategies, and progress. You're not alone – shared experiences empower and enliven life.

Not sure if you fit the bill? Seek input from trusted sources or try a performance assessment. A contender spirit explores curiously to determine what works well and not so well.

Together, we'll challenge the status-quo, learn, and thrive. Stay tuned as we discuss turning steep hills into conquerable slopes.
