than – control my diabetes. I saw Michael Phelps interviewed and a kid asked him how he kept his motivation to go to the pool every day and he said that he set all sorts of short-term goals. I think I need to adopt this attitude towards my diabetes. I need to feel like I’ve made progress – like it’s not a goal like ‘win 17 million medals’, but lots of smaller goals that create a web of ‘get my diabetes in good control’. So this week I shall go throught the CD-rom for my insulin pump. Manageable, important, and good for my self-care!
