Taking baby steps in discipline

It's been nearly a week since my last blog post. I'm not doing so well in the discipline department when it comes to blogging. Whoever said blogging wasn't hard was lying. I have, however, made some progress in other areas of my life in terms of discipline.

After putting it off for far too long I finally took the plunge to buy a good exercise ball. This is purchase one of many to come I have a feeling. I need something to motivate me. By buying an exercise ball it's going to force my hand and give me an opportunity to exercise.

My wife and I have already been subtly changing our diets. We're not on a "diet," but we are definitely changing the way we eat things. I've already seen a positive result by losing two pounds since the new year. By cutting down on my portions (which were too large before) I have seen a positive result without loathing the process.

Discipline is seeing a challenge through. I believe in completing the challenges I am faced with this year it needs to be done with baby steps. I have taken those steps in diet and soon will be exercise. Fiscally I have set small goals for the month and hope to obtain them by February.

I need to write more posts and do more things. I'm aware of that, but I must first form the habits.
