10 Minutes to Shift Everything: The Myth of ‘Not Enough Time’

Let’s address one of the biggest mindset traps I hear all the time: “I just don’t have the time.”

Life is full-on. Between work, family, meals, errands, and everything else, it's so easy to put ourselves at the bottom of the list. But the truth is: you don’t need an hour-long workout or a perfect gym routine. You just need 10 intentional minutes.

Ten minutes of movement can:

Boost your mood
Ease stress
Reignite your energy
Create a ripple effect of better choices all day long

Think about this: how often do we scroll for 10 minutes without even realising it? Or wait 10 minutes for the kettle to boil.. that's a long friggin boil, but you get the jist of it ;-) or the kids to get ready, or a Zoom call to start? That time is already there—we just need to claim it.

Ideas for your 10 minutes:

Dance to your favourite upbeat song - aerobics practice in my kitchen was always a good one for me!
Walk around the block or up and down the stairs
Do some gentle yoga or mobility
Try one of my Daily Movement Mindset videos

Here’s a 10 minute workout you can do no equipment needed… https://youtu.be/lJ2rSx7Xv2U

Movement doesn’t have to look like a traditional workout. What matters most is consistency and intention.

Your challenge today: Find your 10 minutes. Choose joy over pressure. Show your body that it matters. Then tag me in a story or reel—I want to cheer you on :)

You are absolutely worth the time!

The 50 STRONG CHALLENGE:

SPOILER ALERT!

... there may be daily movement

Actually there definitely is!

What is the 50 STRONG challenge?... it is a discipline and habit challenge with daily 'rules' or as I like to call them 'Steps to Success' to adhere to. It's not crazy, but it's not going to be a walk in the park either. The focus is on creating energy and structure that makes you feel like you have MORE time in your day, even if you are doing MORE and learn some stuff along the way.

You choose your day 1 and you do those steps EVERY SINGLE DAY! You miss a step on any day, you start again.

Why do we do this?

a) it gives us control over our decisions

b) simple rules are easier to stick to

c) once you start to get that streak... you don't want to mess it up, increasing your motivation

d) once you start to FEEL the result of those steps kicking in - there's more motivation again

e) once you start to SEE the results - even more motivation

f) by the half way point you are feeling like a strong, in-control, badass female ready to take on the world and you'll keep going to 50 days NO PROBLEM!

g) complete 50 days with me from 18th May... I may just send you a certificate - who doesn't love a certificate!? lol!

h) finally, if you do miss a day, that's ok, no judgement, no pressure. It's not a fail. You can just start again as that is how we build habits and learn - by failing & from our mistakes. If we never failed, never made a mistake, never had a 'fuck it' day we'd all be perfect... and i'd be out of a job lol!

I am starting LIVE from Sunday 18th May, I will post my journey into the FlighFit group on Facebook and update on Instagram too and you can join me at the same time if you wish - the more the merrier and it's always better to do these things with like-minded others too to keep each other going and high energy.
