Motivation: Where are you?

Many people think that that if they wait long enough, motivation will just come.  The fact is, it doesn't work that way.  If you aren't motivated today, then you probably won't be motivated tomorrow either.  This is especially true when it comes to exercise.  If you want to start a workout routine & stick with it, you will have to make it a priority.

Here are a few tips for making exercise a part of your life:

1. So, how do you I find the motivation?  Pretend.  If you act like you want to do something & then just do it, you will start to become motivated and your workouts will become a habit.  You will start to feel worse on the days that you don't do it & that will really motivate you to stick with your routine.

2. Schedule a time for your workout & stick with it.  It should be just as important to your day as anything else on your list. 

3. Find something you enjoy.  If you don't like what you are doing, you will quit.  Make it something that you look forward to doing, instead of something you dread.  There is definitely something for everyone, you just need to find what works for you!
