I know what I said Monday about hitting the gym every weekday, but today is wet and cold and yucky and nothing short of a dire family emergency is going to get me out in that weather before it's time to go home. It's all good, though. I've got my trusty pedometer strapped to my waistband, and I'm making up my fitness goal for the day by jogging up and down stairs, taking quick walking breaks around the inside of the building, and taking the long way whenever I have to go somewhere that's not my desk. Also, I just found myself all alone in the bathroom and seized the opportunity to get in a round of jumping jacks. Sparkpeople.com says I need to burn 217 calories today, and I'm already more than halfway there.
Just as it is with finances, little changes and small contributions here and there can add up to big results. Getting fit doesn't have to be an all or nothing proposition. I knew this, but I forgot for a while and let myself get bogged down focusing on the big changes I couldn't bring myself to make instead of looking at the small changes that could make a world of difference.
Now if I can just remember how to apply this philosophy to home organization, I'll really be on top of my life.
