Alternate Title: I suck
So I have yet to do a single pushup outside of the dojo. So it's time to work out the specifics.
Goal: 20 pushups/day
Plan: drop and give me 20 first thing in the morning. Before I even check my email or catch up on all those blogs I lurk around. This will involve not hitting the snooze button on the alarm so as to not cut into my computer time during the work week.
Reward: If I've managed to make it through the whole week without skipping my pushups even once, I'll reward myself with a single scoop from Baskin Robbins on Saturday night. Not the healthiest choice, I'm sure. But maybe it will motivate me.
So that's the new plan. I need to find a sticker chart or something I can post on here to keep track of it - something someone besides me or my hubby will see to keep me on track.
Gee, rewards and sticker charts - guess you all know I'm a preschool teacher now, huh?

"Alternate Title: I suck"
Now.. now.. this perception needs readjusting.
Obviously you are not satisfied with your performance.. but by labelling yourself in a negative way, aren't you belittling your own efforts?
Instead, I would encourage you to look at the fact that you haven't lost your will to "TRY". See your efforts more as having a strong tenacity, and determination. Keep putting forth the energy to meet your goal, and you WILL succeed.
