Finding Motivation

These past couple of weeks have been an emotional roller coaster.  I'm sorry that it has been a while since I last blogged.  I need the time to take in everything that happened the last few weeks.  I'm Happy to report that I lost one pound at the last weigh-in which brings my total for the three weeks to 15 pounds.  I'm hoping for better results tomorrow. 
Last week I took a couple of days off from the gym, this week I have been back in the gym everyday.  Which brings me to my topic of discussion:  Finding Motivation. I'm sure if you have not used this saying you have heard it before: "I'm just not Motivated to do anything, right now." If I had a nickle for every time I said that I would be rich. Where do you find your motivation to do things? Whether it is going to the gym, taking care of things around your home, going to work, or doing something you enjoy.  For some of us it maybe our Family, for some it may be money, others it may be self-satisfaction.  I found a great article online about finding motivation I hope you can find the time to read it.  http://zenhabits.net/get-off-your-butt-16-ways-to-get-motivated-when-youre-in-a-slump/
So after reading I find myself doing most of these steps.  Especially number 6: commit publicly.  I don't want to let you guys down.  You guys play a major role in my motivation. 
I will let you know how the weigh-in goes tomorrow. Regardless of the results, I'm feeling better and stronger than I did three weeks ago.  I have changed my cardio work out too include more intervals.  This morning I set a personal best on the treadmill, 3 miles in under 37 minutes.

I will leave you with this quote from one of the Everybody Loses Trainers:
 "TODAY, LET'S BE BETTER. NOT PERFECT, JUST BETTER."

Thanks,
