How I did it: I decided I wanted to start jogging on regular basis. I had given it a try several times before but I always gave up on it. I also had tried going to the gym but it's not cheap and the gym is so far away so I don't bother to spend my time in getting between places.

I think the reason I gave up on it was that I was not tracking my time to see myself getting better. I also did not make strict rules on when and how I should jog.

Lessons & tips: If you're into jogging here are some reasons and tips on how to do it:

1. It's free.
2. Track your time (it's much more fun)
3. Compete with your friends.
4. Make sure you jog at least every 2 days.
5. Have a punishment if you don't do so.
6. Know that you won't get immediate results.
7. Be patient.
8. Listen to music with 140 bpm or higher.
9. Don't let bad weather stop you!
10. Start small.

Resources:

1. Time tracker.
2. iPod.
3. Good running shoes (this is really important).
