Thought for the day - August 25th, 2005

Today marks the third straight week I've worked out at least 4 days a week - 5 days if you count my Sunday treadmilling. So I thought this quote was particularly relevant:

"Having once decided to achieve a certain task, achieve it at all costs of tedium and distaste. The gain in self-confidence of having accomplished a tiresome labor is immense." -- Thomas Arnold Bennett

I have no idea who Thomas Arnold Bennett is or was, but I liked that quote, because I have felt a gain in my self-confidence after three weeks of working out (and frankly I needed it!), so I can only wait to see how I'll feel after three months of working out - I'll be one cocky mother scratcher!!!

I'm so glad you're motivated. How come I don't feel like that after all my days at the track? ;)
