Desperate for Morning Motivation
Sometimes even a cup of coffee isn't enough. You are trudging along, staring at that endless To-Do list thinking, where do I start? Let's back up. Not every morning is easy, but sometimes if we push ourselves we can make that morning kick ass. Wake up and put in a minimum of 30 min of work out ...
Gym Woes
Lacking motivation to get to the gym? It happens. Struggling every week? Stop complaining and do something about it. Change your perspective. Focus on the attainable. Set goals to reach.
