Re: What do you do to get motivated and stay motivated?
i made a stupid long post about this once:
(here is the summary)
for most people i think it starts out as athletically motivated, say h.s. sports or what not.
then if/when that is over it moves to vanity and just wanting to look good for the opposite sex/alpha male stuff.
the next step, which some people never go through, is that vanity doesn't get it done anymore. get a job, get married, etc. etc. and vanity won't get you to the gym enough.
then (for me at least) the real motivation has to get figured out.
mine is now this.
staying healthy and active as i move through my 30's.
fight the aging process.
be physically strong.
be in good enough shape to do ANYTHING i want.
(and i mean anything, so i have to be in great shape)
improve my physical self in all areas, instead of declining.
be a good role model of health for my kids.
be able to learn no sports more easily.
last but not least, look good naked.
ok so vanity doesn't go away completely, but it moves down the list as you get older. gl. J.
