Day 20 of my February challenge done! Early morning pedal power!

[Matthew Williams @MattWLandD]

So my February resolution is to get up and do a 20 minute spin on the exercise bike before starting my day. Every weekday morning. Predictions on my how many days this will last? I haven’t even set the alarm for tomorrow yet!

I was just on a call and somebody mentioned wearing a tie. It felt so retro! Something from 2019 landed like it was from the dark ages!

I bought a new shower gel at the weekend (living the high life) which came with hints of this and essence of that. The reality, post shower this morning, is that I smell dangerously like I drank a bottle of whiskey last night! I would have got “looks” on the train if commuting!

@susan_birchwebb @SeanMaywood1 @sarahjchurchman @LeeClarkePwC @washo82 @NathanLomas I really like that. It’s so important to focus on the positives. Not always easy but so powerful.

Day 3 of my February challenge (to do 20 minutes on the bike every morning) complete. 3 days of resisting the wise voice in my head saying “stay in bed, it’s so warm and comfy here”. ✅✅✅

Thank you Captain Tom. For the money you raised, the inspiration you were and the smiles you gave us with your efforts.

I still don’t really understand how I have become such a fan of Married at First Sight Australia! Not just one series, no no! #MarriedAtFirstSightAus

[Matthew Williams @MattWLandD]

@DesireeLHenry All jokes aside I’m really looking forward to it!

[Matthew Williams @MattWLandD]

@beckyhartley Whoop!! Tune in next week to see what I can inspire you to do next! 😂

[Matthew Williams @MattWLandD]

@DesireeLHenry Phew! I’ll focus on being excited then. It’s probably worth knowing I didn’t win for being the fittest or going the furthest! See you soon 💪 😓 🏃‍♂️

I love the concept of little “nudges” and their ability to change our behaviour. I’m hoping that buying some book ends, so the newish books are neatly stood up rather than in a pile, may be the nudge to actually read them!

[Matthew Williams @MattWLandD]

@beckyhartley Good effort! How was it? Every year I try to convince myself I would like to a runner, and every year I soon realise I don’t like running’

[Matthew Williams @MattWLandD]

I’m very excited/mildly terrified that through a work movement challenge I have won a 1-2-1 virtual workout with Olympic medalist @DesireeLHenry

[Matthew Williams @MattWLandD]

I’m rather relieved that I can’t go and watch football live. Tottenham find new ways to disappoint every week! Or multiple times a week sometimes!

[Matthew Williams @MattWLandD]

I’ve really struggled to find the time/drive to exercise much in 2021, even though I’m lucky to have a gym in my garage. I made the time yesterday and surprise surprise I felt great for it! Well not immediately afterwards when I took this pic, but roughly 20 minutes later!

@RobACareerPsych Sounds like a pyramid scheme! But a good one!
