If you think that you need motivation to train your body, you are dead wrong.

Motivation is a fleeting emotion that comes and goes. If you rely on motivation to get you to do something, you are bound to fail.

What you really need is not motivation, but discipline.

Discipline will get you up to do your workout even when you do not have motivation.

In order to cultivate discipline you must keep working out even when you don’t want to, or it is inconvenient.

After you do this for a while, the act of exercise becomes more than just a chore or hobby; it becomes a habit.

Once an act becomes a habit, it is harder to stop that habit than starting it ever was.

As you work towards ingraining exercise as a habit, just remember that every workout, every set, and every rep is building you into the person you were meant to become.

“Excellent, then, is not an act but a habit.” – Aristotle
