75 Hard -Day 12 - I nearly failed!
Day 12 of my 75 Hard journey… and I nearly failed.
After a strong, productive day with both workouts completed, clean eating, and everything ticking
along nicely — I realised at 10pm that I hadn’t taken my progress photos.
That’s an instant fail.
In this video, I talk about how easy it is to slip up, not because something is difficult, but because
you lose focus for a moment. I also share my workouts, starting Atomic Habits, and how small
habits are shaping this journey.
Today started strong again with an early Bullworker X5 session — simple, effective training that
proves you don’t need fancy equipment to stay consistent.
This challenge is teaching me that success isn’t about big moments… it’s about getting the small
things right every single day.
💥 Key takeaway: It’s not the big mistakes that reset you… it’s the small ones you didn’t think
mattered.

Carl and Jenny
Hi and welcome to Carl and Jenny Sailing Adventures. We are a married couple from England. In November 2017 we changed our regular lifestyle for a life upon the waves. We sold up almost everything we owned and bought our live aboard yacht, a Bavaria 47 named “DREAM”. We are breaking free of the traditional lifestyle, and creating a sustainable life cruising around the seas, perhaps the world one day. If you are thinking/hoping of doing something similar in the future subscribe and follow our channel. Let us make the mistakes so you don’t have to. Watch our earlier videos as we go through training, theory and practical and some of our day to day adventures. Follow our boat buying process and the issues that can have. We bring you regular videos and occasionally put out live chats where you can become involved. Thank you for taking time to check us out. We hope you become one of our subscribers. Carl & Jenny
