Don't wait until you feel like working out to go to the gym. The day may never come. Do it anyway! The only way you will get yourself to go to the gym or get a workout in is to make it a habit and go especially when you don't want to go.
Working out is important not just for your physical health or to lose some weight it will build your inner strength, your self confidence, your self discipline and your self respect. Your body needs to be moved, stretched, strengthened, fed and loved. Do something everyday even if it is a few minutes a day.

9. Fill your ipod with good books and go for a walk to listen to them and enjoy them both.
10. Go outside and play! Pick up a ball, a frisbee, a hula hoop, roller blades or a bike and enjoy the outdoors.
