Comments on: The Value of Patience http://www.thecorporatewoman.org/2010/06/the-value-of-patience/ Why choose failure, when success is an option?

I really like the last bit of advice - give it ten minutes and see how it goes. And yes, exercise for life - once I reach my goal, I think that I will find that a more attractive prospect. Plus, exercise will be a habit then too. I appreciate your support! Thank you, Leslie. I really like the last bit of advice – give it ten minutes and see how it goes.

Exercising is a huge part of my life. Here are a couple of things that helped in my work-out journey: - I made physical fitness a life time commitment. After the birth of my second child, I promised myself that exercise will always be a part of my life. - I mix it up (a lot). To help pass the time, I switch out machines and go to different work out classes. I also try to mix up "the distraction" - I'll read a magazine, listen to music, watch TV, or just people-watch at the gym. - I've found that I have to be willing to work out by myself. I cannot rely on others to get me to the gym. - For days when I'm not in the mood, I tell myself, "give it 10 minutes and see what happens." Before I know it 40 minutes have passed and I'm feeling good. Best of luck on your goal! Leslie Tabitha,

Best of luck on your goal!
