Motivation

Here's the thing. I still go swim 3 or 4 times a week. But I don't feel like I'm working towards anything anymore. I got to the point where I can do lap after lap without passing out. I became a certified lifeguard. As I get more and more busy, I'm seeing more excuses not to go swim every day. I need some new motivation.

Oh look, a website full of motivation. Perfect!

So here's the goal for this week:

I actually have school events every day after school this week, except Friday. So I'm going to make it a point to get to the Y sometime during the day on Friday. From that website, I'm going to use tip 3: Choose a habit to destroy at the pool this week. Sometimes I take unnecessary breaks between laps. I will work on that this week.

Trying to Make Working Out Sound Interesting...

So... Still swimming. I go maybe 4 times a week. Anyway, I will now take this opportunity to announce that I have started another blog. I felt that I went far enough with this project, and frankly, I have very little else to talk about. While I will both continue swimming and posting to this blog occasionally, feel free to check out my new endeavor in upcycling on my new blog: http://notmacklemore.blogspot.com/. That's basically it. Have a nice day!
