I relatively ok with myself, but I would like to improve because I know that it would make my life a lot easier. But how do you do that when you are lazy?

And I don't even really mind that I am lazy.. I really really enjoy doing nothing.

I know that for example doing sports would be good for me because it makes me feel better, gives me more energy, and makes me mentally more sane. But everyday when I come home I rather sit in front of the TV or read a book, or browse online...

Same with writing.. I love to write, I would like to at some time write a book, but I am to lazy to just start with it...

Anybody with the same problem?

Better yet, anybody with a solution??

Tnx in advance a million for any tips or tricks!
Ah someone I can relate too...One tip I would give is watch fitness shows while exercising that hand on the remote. Seriously I find alot of great metaphors on TV fitness shows. For instance, Joannie( from happy days) was on a weight loss program and she was talking about her being lazy by nature and having to fight to workout. What I saw in her I saw in myself and I am a man. You see many of us have the same desires it is just a matter of channelling them. One more suggestion that helps me is google "susan powter i'm not here to audition" and "jack lalanne isnt life just great". Those two articles are on the same website. Those two articles alone have shaped a core of my thinking. Also, you can search for other articles and youtube videos by Jack lalanne. Also, Powter had made a 2 part dvd set called motivation. You can buy them from amazon used for around $3 a peice or less.

Hope this helps.

P.S. When the truth is told there's nothing new to teach. Hence: Repitition of the words of lalanne and powter will instill knowing and understanding and action.
