Motivation gets you started; habit keeps you going.
Stop with the excuses. Start now. Anything is better than nothing
Monitor yourself. Ask for help
Learn from your experiences. Manage your thoughts
If you continue in your current ways, where will you end up?
Stop beating yourself up with the negatives
Start with the first step, which gives you motivation for the second step of commitment, which gives you strength and repeated first steps provide success.
My counsel is this: Live freely, animated and motivated by God’s Spirit. Then you won’t feed the compulsions of selfishness. For there is a root of sinful self-interest in us that is at odds with a free spirit, just as the free spirit is incompatible with selfishness. These two ways of life are contrary to each other, so that you cannot live at times one way and at times another way according to how you feel on any given day. Why don’t you choose to be led by the Spirit and so escape the erratic compulsions of a law-dominated existence?
(Galatians 5:16-18, MSG)
