When procrastination starts taking over my day, I pull myself together by following…

What Would a Fit Person Do?

Sometimes I have to play tricks on myself. It’s not that I’m a lazy person by nature (OK, maybe I am), but if I don’t give myself a really good reason to do something I’m liable to doze on the couch all day with my dog Skyla. One area of my life where I need…
