Hi all, glad to be on your side of this fight.

[Amaroq]

An Assassin at heart, I aim to train as a ranger in order to be versatile. I am a father of four young 'uns and my promotion last year has me more sedentary than before.

I have recently come to realize that motivation will not get things done so I am working to cultivate some discipline. The plan is to develop a good system for being strong and flexible, ready to help whoever needs help, and do what needs to be done. 

I'm looking forward to meeting you and working together on our quests.

I started off as an Assassin, but switched to Warrior when I realized my main goal for now is to build muscle. Good luck on your quest's and on your discipline. I know I have my own struggles with my own mind set (: So far so good

Thanks, Good luck to you as well.

Discipline is a huge struggle of mine. I've been working on it for a few years now, and it has been painfully slow. However, I have some measures that show me I've made progress. So it is possible. And that thought saves me.

 

Welcome!

Thanks Dagger,

On your comment  "When I tell people my goals (especially fitness and nutrition goals), I get the sensation of having done the thing I talked about. That means I lose all momentum and have trouble getting on the horse (or back on the horse if I actually started). "

 

I totally understand! I thought I might be the only one that deals with this. It has made for so much talk and so little action in my life. My discipline focus right now is to become a doer and not just a talker.

I didn't know that was happening until I read about it on some blog; I recognized what they were talking about when they said public announcement doesn't work for everyone. So you are not alone, and it was a relief learning that there are more people out there like us.

 

I haven't suddenly lost all momentum, so hopefully by getting a good start on it before saying anything I was already doing it so telling people didn't stop me before I even got started.
