New Years Eve is approaching and everyone is making a New Years resolution.
At the top of most people's list is the goal to become fit.
Most people will join a gym in January but end up back on their couch by the start of February.
In order to stick with your fitness goals, you are going to have to motivate yourself.
Understand that human nature makes you a lazy procrastinator.
It is human nature to keep putting things off until it's too late.
Motivating yourself to stay fit in the 2007 is easier than you think.
All you have to do is think about working out and fitness from a different perspective.

Chasing the extrinsic rewards of working out only works temporarily.
In order to stay motivated, you have to find intrinsic rewards for working out.
You have to find reasons why you like working out just for the sake of working out.
Working out provides your mind with a time to relax.
Every second of the day, your mind is thinking about all types of problems in your life.
The time you spend working out allows you to forget about all the problems and just have a clear mind.
Working out also provides a daily challenge.
Every day you go to the gym, you will challenge yourself to become stronger.
Every day you will be forced to push your limits and accomplish a goal.
After a session at the gym, I guarantee you will feel a lot more confident about yourself and free of stress.
The long-term health benefits of working out are self-explanatory.
Looking good for other people should be the last thing on your mind when you are working out.
Work out to improve your own lifestyle.
