An easy way to get motivated!

Banish the word "should" from 
your vocabulary and you may
find you can accomplish anything.
By saying you should do
something, like exercise, it 
immediately implies you feel the
activity is a burden, but replace "should" with "want"
and you'll start to build positive energy. So
try telling yourself that you want to
work out today and you'll get in the
right mind-set to go to the gym,
which is half the battle!

  6. Wow - I love this!
    I just started hot yoga because I know I 'should' be doing something active. Luckily I love it so I actually WANT to go :) I also need to replace 'need' with want - it would come in handy for my to do list procrastination!
