Exercise 1st... Spark 2nd. Works for me!

Motivation is what gets you started. Habit is what keeps you going.

Instead of giving myself reasons why I can't I give myself reasons why I can.

Tired of starting over? Stop giving up!!

Hi Team,
Well I woke up and started my day with a spark and got inspired by what I read today on the site.
I am setting a team Encouragement Challenge until the end of this month. I just read a very interesting article that stated that just sharing a small encouraging exercise thought with someone made a world of difference- here is the link to the article:
www.sparkpeople.com/resource/fitness_artic
les.asp?id=638


Then I saw this quote on today's opening page:
"Great opportunities to help others seldom come, but small ones surround us every day."
-Sally Koch

So here is the challenge:
visit a team members sparkpage and leave them either an encouraging comment about their progress or exercise program, or leave them a spark goodie that has to do with fitness and a quick encouraging words.

You never know who's day you will brighten and motivate to go those extra minutes or steps in their day.

When you've done this good & positive deed please come back to the post and leave a emoticon to show it.

Let's Go Team!
