After a few weeks off, I got back in the saddle and went to the gym. I’m taking things slowly, but I brought a book and rode the bike for awhile. Perhaps not the most intense workout, but it also moves me forward on reading more books. My biggest issue with any of these goals is that I don’t make the time to accomplish them. Multi-tasking may not be the best way to do either, but moving forward in baby steps is the best thing that I can do.

This will be my biggest challenge. It is the lack of self-discipline that makes it so hard to accomplish the other goals. Instead of reading a book to accomplish my read more books or picking up some of the many language tapes I’ve bought or even tidying my house, I’m sitting here wasting time on the internet, watching the bf play halo and letting the pup sit squarely on my lap so that I can’t get up and spend a little time moving towards my goals. So, step one, I admit I have a problem. The problem that is the root of all of the other problems (or at least the ones I can do something about!). Tomorrow, I commit to doing one thing towards accomplishing these goals. Just one thing.
