The Monday Morning Brew - SMART Goals Week 3: The Consistency Upgrade
Monday, 19 January, 2026
Welcome back! Hope you are all having a great start to your Day, grabbing your marinated bean water or tea and I have to say I'm so thankful you choose to listen to us and I hope that we help kickoff your Day in a positive and focused way! Well today we’re stepping into Week Three of your SMART fitness journey. If you’ve made it this far, take a second and acknowledge that. Most people fall off after Week One. But not You! You’re still here. You’re still showing up. That matters. Week Three is where your habits start to take shape. It’s where your brain begins to recognize, “Oh… we’re doing this now.” But it’s also where boredom, doubt, or life’s distractions can creep in. So today, we’re talking about how to upgrade your consistency, keep your momentum alive, and stay connected to your “why.”SEGMENT 1: WHAT MAKES WEEK THREE UNIQUEWeek Three is a turning point. Not because you’re suddenly doing harder workouts, but because you’re building identity.In Week One, you were trying something new. In Week Two, you were proving you could stick with it. But in Week Three? You’re becoming the kind of person who moves their body on purpose.This is where fitness shifts from a task… to a lifestyle. But here’s the catch: Week Three is also when the novelty wears off. You might feel:A little boredA little tiredA little tempted to skipOr even a little unsure if you’re making progressAll of that is normal. It doesn’t mean you’re failing whatsoever, it means you’re transitioning.This week is about leaning into the routine, not running from it.SEGMENT 2: RECONNECTING WITH YOUR “WHY”I'd love to pause and reconnect with something important... your “why.”Why did you start this journey?What were you hoping to feel?What were you hoping to change?What were you hoping to prove to yourself? Your “why” is your anchor.It’s the thing that keeps you going when motivation fades. Take a moment and bring that reason back to the front of your mind. That’s what’s going to carry you through Week Three.SEGMENT 3: THE WEEK THREE CHALLENGE — “THE CONSISTENCY UPGRADE”Alright, here’s your official Week Three Listener Challenge. “4‑Day Consistency Upgrade”. For the next 7 days, your goal is simple: Complete 4 days of intentional movement, any style, any length. Not perfection. Not intensity. Just four days where you choose to move your body on purpose.Movement options include:A 20‑minute walkA 10‑minute strength routineA stretching or mobility sessionA dance breakA yoga flowA beginner cardio videoA bike rideA swimA hikeEven cleaning or yard work if it gets your heart rate up The goal is intentional movement, not performance.You may be wondering Why this works:It strengthens your habit loop, It builds confidence, It keeps your goals flexible, It reduces the “start over Monday” cycle, It helps you feel proud of your consistency. Four days. That’s it.You can absolutely do this.SEGMENT 4: ACCOUNTABILITY BOOSTERS FOR WEEK THREE:Let’s talk about how to stay accountable this week as always without shame, without pressure.1. Use a simple tracking system A calendar. A notes app. A whiteboard. A sticky note on your fridge. Whatever works for you! Seeing your progress keeps your brain engaged.2. Celebrate the small winsDid you move for 10 minutes? That counts.Did you stretch instead of skipping entirely? That counts too. Small wins stack up.3. Pair your movement with something enjoyableA favorite playlist.A podcast episode.A walk with a friend.A show you only watch while on the treadmill. Pleasure makes habits stick.4. Don’t let one missed day turn into a missed weekIf you skip a day, don’t spiral.Just pick up where you left off.Consistency is built on returning, not perfection.SEGMENT 5: QUICK GUIDED REFLECTIONTake a breath with me.Think about the version of yourself you’re becoming.The one who moves with intention. The one who honors their body. The one who shows up even when it’s not exciting. Now ask yourself:What’s one small action I can take today to support that version of me?How do I want to feel at the end of this week?What would make me proud seven days from now?Think on these, I'd even suggest writing down and holding onto those answers.They’re your compass for Week Three.Week Three is where consistency becomes identity.Where effort becomes routine.Where small steps start to feel natural.You don’t need to be perfect.You don’t need to be intense.You just need to keep showing up, four days this week, with intention and compassion.Well that's a wrap! If this episode helped you, share it with someone who’s on their own fitness journey.As always, thank you for taking time out of your Day to join us! Remember to be kind to yourself and to be kind to each-other, be helpful, be useful and tell your loved ones how much you love them, call that friend who crossed your mind randomly and just say hi! Pay it forward... buy that person behind you in the drive-thru a coffee, just spread love and kindness whenever you can and above all, be the change you want to see in the world!See you next time! And get ready! Week Four is the wrap up episode for this "SMART goals series" to kick off the New Years. February is where we start talking about momentum, confidence, and long‑term sustainability.
