This morning, while snuggled in my bed, I laid there listening to the rain and wondered why I couldn't just lay there and dig a little deeper under the covers. Then I remembered I am not old enough for SS benefits, not disabled nor am I rich; so I proceeded to arise and start my day. Only 3 days until my birthday and I'm wondering if it will be just as hard to get up then as it was today. I figure that is not going to change.
Upon rising I feel the general aches and pains that seem to come with the aging process plus I started exercising again yesterday evening. This seems to add to those pains along with the weather. Starting back exercising after stopping for 3 months I think 30 minutes on the bike was pretty good, but I need to up the intensity on the workouts and get my pain on. So, does more pain in the beginning equal less pain later and can my 61st year be the start of something good?
My problem is I start off slow and get uninterested real fast. My lack of motivation, or should I say self-motivation has not been my strong point. I would love to have a motivator to encourage me and keeps me on course. Not sure this is a trait I can develop at 60.
I know I'm not in the best shape and I'm overweight so don't tell me that. Positive motivation is what I'm looking for, any suggestions?
Until later!
