Tricking Myself
I have made working out super convenient by investing in at home machines. I have an eliptical and a treadmill and alternate between them. If I’m ever struggling to get on the machine, I tell myself it’s fine if I get on but only do half the time! For example, I usually do 30 minutes on the elliptical so would tell myself…

Quotes and Comments I Find Inspiring
I wanted to share with MFP posters who might stumble on this thread ... One of my go-to authors is James Clear, who wrote the book "Atomic Habits'. He said this in Chapter 1 about goals, which can so easily create an 'either-or' conflict, and they don't have to be that way at all ... "When you fall in love with the process…
