I hate to say this, but I'm going to say it. I joined a "challenge" this fall. I this is my first "active" challenge in more than a year. It is ME not the Challenge or the Team or Spark People it is ME. I have too many things going on in my personal life to worry about a challenge. I have accepted Responsibility for My Life. I know (it is ME not the Team). I find some of the "challenge stuff" just NOT that important to ME at this Time In My Life. When I joined said "challenge" I thought YES!!! I will Give it My ALL...and I have TRIED. But & that is a REALLY BIG BUTT (I have one). I am just not IN INTO IT to WIN It mode. OR to DO all the STUFF I feel is "Busy Work" (compiling points) that the people like me find just make ME feel frustrated. (Sorry to my very supportive Team.)

You Dear Team are all wonderful people and I really appreciate your support for this challenge. You have been so kind and supportive to me. I just wish I was totally INTO what ever the "challenge mode" may be. There is nothing wrong with Spark challenges, challenge teams or anything that makes us try HARDER to work toward our goals. Joining a challenge team this fall has just made me think about My Plan for My Life Journey. I hope all my team members meet their goals and really enjoy this challenge. I am sorry that I have realized this is not part of my plan. I will stay to the end of this challenge. I will try to be a good team member. I am sorry that I'm just not feeling motivated by the challenge.

I appreciate that the team members are all kind, supportive people and I love your encouragement & support. I love the team interaction. I just don't feel motivated by the rules of this challenge.
