Life is a journey of constant evolution. Sometimes, it challenges us in ways we never expect, forcing us to adapt, push forward, and redefine our limits. My own path has been one of overcoming adversity, from battling years of pain due to deteriorating hips to undergoing double hip replacement surgery. Each step of this process, including the recovery and rebuilding that followed, has been a testament to resilience and the power of a structured plan. That’s why I created the 90-Day Personal Living Strong Project, a framework that helped me regain strength, focus, and purpose—and one that can do the same for you.
The Road to Recovery: From Pain to Power
For years, I struggled with limited mobility and chronic pain from my failing hips. Every step was a challenge, every movement a reminder that my body wasn’t functioning as it should. I knew surgery was inevitable, and when the time came, I embraced the process head-on. The surgeries were just the beginning. The true battle was in the recovery—the slow, deliberate process of regaining strength and mobility while refusing to let setbacks define me.
I needed structure. I needed something simple yet effective to track my progress and keep me on course. This mindset led me to develop a personal project approach to growth and recovery, which has now evolved into the 90-Day Personal Living Strong Project—a system for anyone looking to rebuild, refocus, and achieve something meaningful in their life.
The 21-Day Wake-Up and Workout Plan: Restarting My Engine
Coming out of surgery, my strength was at an all-time low. The frustration of not moving the way I wanted weighed heavily on me, but I knew that small steps would lead to big progress. I implemented a 21-day Wake-Up and Workout Plan, focused on three key areas:
- Movement: Gentle mobility exercises and bodyweight workouts to regain function.
- Mindset: Daily affirmations and visualization to stay motivated.
- Consistency: Keeping a simple daily log to track progress and celebrate small victories.
This phase was crucial—it reignited my discipline, my drive, and my belief in the power of taking action. That’s what this Personal Living Strong Project is all about: simple, daily steps that keep you moving forward.
The Next Challenge: Rebuilding Strength Amidst Setbacks
Just when I was regaining momentum, life threw another challenge my way—a cold and fever that knocked me down for days. It was a reminder that recovery and progress aren’t linear. I had to adjust, give my body time to heal, and then ease back into my plan.
This experience reinforced an essential lesson: having a structured blueprint makes it easier to get back on track. Life happens. We get sick, we get busy, we face unexpected obstacles—but with a solid system in place, we always know what the next step looks like.
Why a Project and Not a Challenge?
I’ve been through plenty of “challenges.” They are often exciting at first but unsustainable in the long run. The 90-Day Personal Living Strong Project is different—it’s about building something long-term. When we think of something as a project, it changes the way we approach it:
- A challenge ends, but a project evolves.
- A challenge is pass/fail, but a project adapts and grows with you.
- A challenge is temporary, but a project builds lasting habits.
This shift in mindset makes all the difference. We aren’t just testing ourselves for 90 days—we’re laying the foundation for a stronger, healthier, more resilient life.
