The strategies I use are guilt and vanity.
Do I want to workout? Heck no. I’d rather not do it, do nothing and not do it. But I force myself to go downstairs and pick up the weights, roll out the yoga mat and most evenings a forty minute brisk walk.
I know it’s good for my health, both physically and mentally. I know this. Yet knowing it is still not enough.
I have to guilt myself into doing it and if that doesn’t work, I picture how my body will look in the future, if I don’t exercise. That will usually do the trick. Because I want to look good.
Thank god for vanity.
Happy Birthday to my Mom today, will not get to see her but hopefully she has a great day. Isn’t July 24 such a great day for a birthday? It’s such a pretty number. For a pretty lady.
