Lizz Posted December 13, 2014 Report Share Posted December 13, 2014 O I keep putting things off, and finally my last excuse has expired. I graduated school, so now there is no more too much time studying excuse. I still am trying to figure out a plan, but I love this respawn opportunity. 1 Quote Link to comment

MattGannon Posted December 13, 2014 Report Share Posted December 13, 2014 Never too late to respawn. You're in the right place. Good luck 1 Quote "Courage doesn't always roar.

Lizz Posted December 14, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 14, 2014 Thank you both for the congratulations and encouragement. Last night I found a workout partner, who is cool with letting me joing him. This was an unknown resource as it is while I am on shift and in my work area but hidden. Being on night shift has its perks . 2 Quote Link to comment

Having a partner to workout with keeps your motivated (especially if the partner is male and you're female), and gives the whole thing a sense of accountability, which I believe to be very important. Good luck with everything! And yeah, night shifts have their positive sides for sure lol 1 Quote "Courage doesn't always roar.

Lizz Posted December 15, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 15, 2014 The only issue is this will probably short term. Its a start, but want omething more long term ultimatly. If not I just keep respawning with little improvements. 1 Quote Link to comment

If not I just keep respawning with little improvements. Incremental improvements are manageable and surmount to big successes. Maybe you can find another workout partner if the one you have doesn't work out. And you'll always have the rebellion to keep you motivated. 1 Quote "Courage doesn't always roar.

TMedina Posted December 15, 2014 Report Share Posted December 15, 2014 Now that you've graduated, you can start to delve into what does, and doesn't, motivate you. As Matt pointed out, you have a huge support base here on the forums. A short-term workout buddy can help and if that is what works for you, maybe look for a more long-term partner. Or join a class? See if the group energy meets the same need? EtA: There is no one "fits all" solution - you tinker here, adjust there, and find the solution that works best for you. I think Edison has been credited with observing, "I have not failed 10,000 times. I have successfully found 10,000 ways that will not work." 1 Quote Imaginary Human Male Dilettante Trainer, Level 1 Spoiler How to: Add the status bar to my signature How to: Spruce up your profile Where to start: General Fitness questions How to: Declutter your life, a minimalism thread How to: Slay your budgeting woes (or at least, start the quest) Link to comment
Lizz Posted December 19, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 19, 2014 I said short term as I contract overseas, and may be changing contracts and locations. Quote Link to comment
