I need some motivation!

Options
I find it very difficult to self motivate! I can go out and happily exercicse if Ihave a partner, but I can't always find a partner to exercise with - so how do I self motivate and make it happen??? Any suggestions!

    Really good music! And putting on your workout clothes even when you don't want to. That helps me get motivated to leave the house.

    I reward myself for sticking to my exercise plan. Not with food, but something I really want. It works for me.

    When I was first getting into working out, I would just say, "I am just going to leave the HOUSE". If I put on my clothes and got out of the door, I knew I'd end up at the gym. (I'm EXCELLENT at lying to myself...so I use this power for good now). Good luck! Maybe a cyber workout buddy?
