10 years ago I decided to seriously commit to fitness and never looked back
Just daily gym visits or are you doing a program like Crossfit?

I put very simple items on my "to-do" list, or items that I have already accomplished, like your dad, gives you a feeling of achieving something that carries over for a period of time.

Jogging at least a mile a day, everyday (typically get in at least 2.5). I made the resolution in november. I feel really good. Starts my day with a "win" as you say. And lost 15lbs not even trying to. Having surgery on old injury next week so back to being a slob lol.

I laugh at the unfortunate. This makes my great life even greater.

Never go to bed angry.
Meditate when I'm stressed out (although I haven't done it as much lately).

I've started walking atleast 2 miles every morning and listening to classical music.
I then French press coffee and usually write in a journal while listening to motivational videos/speeches. Every week, I list what accomplishments I'm proud of.
I have a lot of anxiety and depression issues, but it's starting to work. I have my killer instinct back, I don't just want to win, I want to win convincingly.
When I don't want to do something that is more internal than external (I.e. Procrastinating studying or something) I tell myself if I don't want to continue after 15 minutes it's OK I can stop. I generally don't anymore, it's just getting started.

You won't find many southerners that do this, but my friends from other places tell me this changed their life.

Getting to work early. Going to bed early.

I started working out 30 minutes a day, five days a week as part of my new years resolution. I exercise a major muscle group each day with no more than 2 or 3 exercises. I haven't noticed any difference as far as muscle growth or leaning of my stomach, but I do feel much better overall.

There are some great books by Ivy League folks that are easy reads and teach how to meditate. Do some research. The medical benefits are well-documented.
I have high anxiety and refuse to get on meds for fear I'll never get off. Exercise and meditation (and the occasional scotch and joint) really help.

Definitely making the time to exercise.
Working on: drinking less, making time for others

I make a checklist/ agenda on my phone during my morning shite. Also I wake up at 6 every morning regardless if I have work or not.
On my off days instead of sleeping in I'll wake up at 6, get some shite done, then after lunch I take a 45 minute mid afternoon nap.

I had my alarm set to the monday night football theme back in college. Everytime I heard it while watching football, it would make me cringe.

Also, I am really trying to work on developing a more "Don't give a frick" attitude about meaningless things in life.
There are important things in life and there is everything else.

quote:thats why the military makes them do that. the person accomplishes a goal first thing in the morning on the first thing they did. This gives mental stimulation and a drive to accomplish more throughout the day.
I asked my dad this yesterday and he said "making the bed". Sounds corny, but it gives him a "win" first thing in the morning that carries on throughout the day.
