I often mention it to people or I look up articles, or I spend hours looking up effective ways of learning a language, and this is all time I could spend actually LEARNING the language. On the flip side though, I'm trying to lose weight. And having massive social anxiety I dusted off my Kinect and an old fitness game so I could exercise in the solitude of my own study. It was a good workout, but I invested in a larger TV and the newer version of the fitness game. The TV because standing across the room I couldn't see what was going on properly, and the new game because it had a lot of new features that would keep me motivated. Well, now I'm exercising every day and will keep doing it for the forseeable future but I need to focus more with the Russian! Thanks for the great article!

Only running will make you a runner. Everything else is superfluous. This is a very disciplined way to think.

It is an excellent post and is in my bookmarks to come back to as a reminder to "just do it" and not just talk about it. Scott, I reread this tonight, more than a year after I first did.

Thank you and I hope to hear from you soon. hey you opened my eyes. ithink I have been reading articles on personal development subjects for a year now, but never applied them, because of the feeling they gave to me: the feeling of an already accomplished task.
