June Fitness: Celebrate!

Exercise is an energy-back guarantee. Regular workouts increase your endurance and reduce fatigue.

Making any major lifestyle change can be trying. A great way to motivate yourself to keep with the program is to properly celebrate your achievements. This may be as important as setting goals and visualizing successes. When you accomplish one of your short-term or long-term goals, make sure that you reward yourself well:

1. Buy yourself new workout clothes or shoes.
2. Make plans with good friends to see a movie or go hiking.
3. Go on a weekend getaway.
4. Schedule time to call old friends and catch up.
5. Plan a dinner at your favorite restaurant.
6. Get tickets to your favorite theater production or athletic event.
7. Pamper yourself with a massage.
8. Enroll in a class that interests you and learn something new.

Believing in yourself; it's the ticket to success.
