Excuses Excuses

Just last week, I was talking to a good friend about stuff when we came across our goal on our fitness this year. My friend is very active in the gym and is doing a pretty good job. While for me, I planned to start hitting the gym again late last year but I had certain concerns. First was my search for a nice place to do cardio. I am never a treadmill kind of guy and I need to lose weigh. Second was that I got sick around end November where I was supposed to enroll on a gym near my place. I was coughing like a dog up until last week when I got an antibiotic prescription from a doctor (Yes I never went for a check up until my cough was waking me up in the middle of the night) . Now going back, while we were talking I blurt out my intention to jog in a near by stadium (just recently got access) but I was saying a lot of things. My friend said a line that made me realize a lot of thing. The line was "Maybe you are just making excuses not to do it". True enough, I think I was just making excuses. So I quickly decided to start jogging and I did manage to jog. Aside from jogging, those words were like wake up call and now I am trying to do everything and not make excuses. Now that is a bigger challenge.
