Getting the machine (your body) started

6. Set Deadlines
PART of achieving goals is to set a timetable of when you want to reach these goals. This helps to hold you accountable in your quest. If you make your goals a ‘never ending journey’ then you may give up on them when the road seems long and boring. An example of a deadline would be that you may want to fit in a one size smaller pants or dress size in the next two months or that you want to be able to walk around the block once. Then if you make your deadline, REWARD YOUSELF. By reward I don’t mean go down to the local Krispy Kreme and get a dozen doughnuts. You should go out and buy that new smaller dress or new pair of pants that you now fit into.
7. Just Do It!
Put your goals and plan into action. Remember, for every action there is a ReAction. If you don’t do anything, then you are not going to achieve anything.

“exercise to feel good rather than to look good”
That is very important, but too often ignored.
My goal in #1 is not to miss… my goal is 3x per week ongoing. If I can get started, I can always finish… it’s getting out of bed and out the door that’s the hardest.
