The bit of Leo Babtua's book that speaks to my condition most at present is 'Create Habits'.
What habit would you like to create? I'm trying to get the exercise habit as you know if you read this blog.
Babatua says 'First start light'. As the DVDs haven't arrived yet, I'm doing my routine from a seven minute you tube clip - that's pretty light I guess!
Second 'Schedule your workout time' - easy - late at night. I'm an owl, no doubt about it, and late at night the house is warm, there won't be any interruptions, it's totally private and I can follow my exercise with a relaxing bath and a good sleep.
Thirdly 'Dont allow your self to miss a day'. H'mm, we'll see...
Fourthly 'Don't give up'. I'll give it a month and review.
'Be accountable to others' - well, I'm committing publicly here, now! Hold me to it. And/or join me anyone?
And finally 'Enjoy it'. Well that's my major breakthrough. The fact that I really enjoy the ballet warmup workouts increases enormously my chances of actually sticking with it, and successfully getting the exercise habit.
