Are you motivated to exercise? In one of the other Forums, someone expressed the thought that it was easy to be distracted by more pressing matters and to decide to attend to them instead.

Perhaps a visual would be helpful. I have an 8x11 calendar that I use just to record the times I participate in some form of exercise. It's a picture that shows me how I'm doing.

This morning, for example, I went to an early morning yoga class. As soon as I arrived home, I put a big, green check in today's box and at the bottom I wrote "yoga class." The green means: "Hey, I did something healthy today!" I also record my other activities such as walking and tap dancing. For this month, I have checks in thirteen out of twenty days . While it's not perfect, I find it uplifting to see a calendar full of green, affirmative marks.
