I enjoyed this post on the Family In Shape blog regarding motivation. We have talked about motivation vs. determination before - perhaps they are two sides of the same coin.

We all have our motivation for training, our “why” we do it. If it is a strong enough “why”, this can drive us toward our goals.

What I have found is that our emotions can get in the way, and we let our feelings dictate our actions. If we don’t “feel like it”, we don’t do it. It is at these times where we need to be determined to succeed, no matter what.

Emotions have their place, but we need the self-discipline to act regardless of how we feel.

Set a goal, write it down, and don’t let anything (even yourself) get in the way of reaching it!
