Motivate yourself to exercise.

 

 

It's not impossible to motivate yourself to exercise. Some people find motivation when they make a commitment to meet another person for a walk. Others get motivated when they are paying a personal trainer. The key is to know that you can create your own motivation.

 

Be creative! Getting a dog that has to be walked will also give you a furry friend to keep you company while you exercise. And taking a volunteer job that requires physical exertion, like Meals on Wheels, will help you stay fit while helping another human being, too.

 

Action for the day: You can get motivated to move. Today, make plans to exercise with a friend or to help a neighbor. Motivation will follow such actions.

I belong to a wonderful health club and over the years I have become friends with the regulars. Several of my neighbors go to my club too. They have classes that make exercise a social thing too. I love to bike, run/walk and swim. Once I am at the club the workout is really great and the atrium and steam room are a perfect reward. I always feel better after. Thanks for your posts they are encouraging. Just me
