Make yourself do the things you don't want to do and/or are afraid of. Some days I don't feel like going to the gym, and it is quite amusing at the excuses I can come up with not to go (or to eat fast food rather than going home and cooking). But I MAKE myself go.

How many days a week are you exercising your legs? I used to work every body part twice a week and would stall out quite a bit.
