		<description>When I was training for my first Ironman Triathlon my least favorite workout was running in the snow and rain.  I read an article about just going out for 5 minutes.  Once I was out there I had the opportunity to choose more or go back inside.  It worked great and got me out there in any weather and I ran longer 99% of the time.</description>

		<description>Habits are hard to break and make, a little motivation and desire goes a long way. If you are trying to quit smoking then breaking the physical habit is hard, the mental habits are even harder.

Great article on habits and I know it will help many break those bad habits and start new good habits.
Cheers

		<description>@Mumbai: While planning can sometimes get in the way of getting things done, clarity is essential to better living. This is what planning aims to accomplish: managing life&#039;s complexity and clarifying one&#039;s thoughts, so that it is easier to carry out the tasks required.

But beginning with action helps you have a better understanding of the experiences you want to have. We sometimes feel anxious about a certain experience simply because we don&#039;t know what it will be like. :)

@Aeroporika Eisitiria: I&#039;ve never smoked in my life, so I don&#039;t know what it&#039;s like to quit. Having said that, there are common patterns of human behavior that are applicable to all habits. For example, if we enjoy a given habit, we will be reluctant to give it up. To actually say: &quot;I must STOP smoking,&quot; will make you put off quitting because you&#039;re still attached to the habit.

@Hugh: I definitely agree. Thanks for sharing!

@Calm Man: &quot;Accepting reality&quot; is one of the central foundations of personal growth, which is why I will be talking about it a great deal in my blog.

You can leave me a comment on any of my blog posts about the specific issues you would like to see me address and I will write about them. :D</description>
