Walk Before You Run

So I skipped out on the exercise streak for two days. I got back on track today and did a walking video from Leslie Sansone. I did the one mile video. I will try to do more later tonight. It wasn't as easy as I thought it would be. I thought, hey, it's walking...how hard can it be? Leslie Sansone adds moves in that are a little harder than walking, but not ridiculous. However, when you repeat that action over and over again, it gets pretty tiring. Your muscles start to burn a little. I will say that I am glad I found those videos. I don't know why I didn't think of it before. I'm always trying to do ridiculously hard workout videos and then totally giving up after ten minutes because it's just too hard. I try, I suck at it, and I get discouraged. I've got to learn to walk before I run...literally. I hate to say it, but I am in no shape to be doing any serious exercise just yet. These walking videos are more my speed. I might actually stick with it because it doesn't seem so impossible. I need to apply this to my life in general. I do always try to do way too much in general, and then when I can't handle to tasks of superwoman, I get discouraged and quit all together and feel like a failure. I need to break this cycle, or I will never succeed. Walk first...then run...then fly!
