Slacking at work just means you'll get fired. Slacking at skydiving just means you'll get uncurrent and die. You don't mind becoming a broke, dead, fat chick do ya?

flyingferret 0 #21 December 1, 2004 If you are interested in books, check out: Greatest Miracle in The World http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0553279726/qid=1101938900/sr=1-1/ref=sr_1_1/002-3333344-8416825?v=glance&s=books It is as inspirational as motivational I guess. My only trick with gym stuff is to equate reps to somehting you want, ie a chocolate, a 'stroke' with your sig. other., etc. If you are mental person, it works great. Of course on the flipside, maybe you need to just give in and enjoy a slack binge, and then go back motivated. I used to be realy bad about half slacking and beating myself up the whole time. SO I did not get the enjoyment from achievement or laziness.-- All the flaming and trolls of wreck dot with a pretty GUI. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
