In order to do anything successfully, you must first understand why you are doing it. This *Why* will be your fuel to carry you towards your goal. Without this fuel, it will be impossible to keep up your motivation.
We have so many distractions in our everyday lives that making a committment to do anything takes a lot of coordination. Who is going to watch the kids? Will I be able to keep the committment for longer than a couple of weeks? How much time out of my day is the committment going to take? If you start with a solid *Why*, distractions are much more manageable.
Take a few moments and think about why you want to get fit. Feel free to share your reason and inspire others!
