Good morning everyone, we have entered to day 13 of this 21 Days 5 Minutes Challenge. So hope you guys are following me every single day. So this challenge is all about how you can make your fitness journey kickstarted with just 5 minutes. Okay, everything what you start with small, and if you do it for a longer period of time, that becomes a habit, and through habit you can achieve your journey. Yeah, so, so let's get started today. So what exactly I'm doing in this 5-minute challenge is many of you may be super busy with your life and you don't have time to follow strict diets and following to the gym, all of that. And you give— you keep giving excuses that, you know, I don't have a time. So I thought, why not we do, uh, in a limited time, whatever we have, kickstart something. So doing nothing is better than doing something, right? So then that's how I started this 5 Minutes Challenge. So every single day we're going to do some kind of a routine, so which takes care of your mind, which takes care of your body, and also it sets right energy for your day. Okay, so that's what this challenge is all about. So why I'm doing this is I'm on a mission of transforming 100K working professionals. Who are like me, who are super busy, who doesn't have a time to live a healthy and fit lifestyle, and help them to lose fat for once for all and live a healthy and fit lifestyle for rest of their life. And not only that, and during this my own self-discovery, I understood if I got the knowledge, the right knowledge from my parents, my school, or my colleagues and everyone, that whatever, um, what is the right way to maintain a healthy and fit body, if I, if I know If I know it, I should have not gone through all the challenges, whatever I faced. Then I said, why can't we— I teach everyone that apart from their transforming, they also get the knowledge about how the overall fitness works. And if they have a knowledge about their mindset, they have a knowledge about their nutrition and the workouts, how they can plan it. So not only that knowledge will help them to transform, also helps, which will help them to the next generations to come in their family, their kids, the family members, and other ones. So that's how this whole mission started. I mean, a vision of my long-term vision is creating a new breed of healthy and fit kids. Okay, so let's get started with today's routine. So what is we gonna do today is, uh, we'll start with the first section is affirmations, then we do a breathing technique, and then we do jumping jacks.

I'm so grateful now that healthy and fit body comes to me easily, effortlessly, consistently, every single day. I'm so grateful now that healthy and fit body comes to me easily, effortlessly, consistently, every single day. So what exactly we are doing with these affirmations is we are programming our mind with the right thoughts. So thoughts are the first, the stepping starting point for you to take any actions. Without positive thoughts, without a positive self Without those positive feelings, you will not be able to take action. So that's how we are training every single day to set a right mindset at the start itself. So let's do now, uh, the breathing technique.
