It seems to me that once I accept that I am going to have to do (forever) some things that are hard for me, like exercise regularly or not eat all the donuts I want in general, then the only question to ask myself is, “Do I want it to get harder or easier?” I hold the key to that. Some mornings when it is a particular push to get up to exercise (usually because I went to bed too late), the only thing that gets me out of bed is this question, “If I don’t go today, will tomorrow be harder or easier?” I certainly don’t need this to be any harder.
