I taught myself to be more optimistic and less negative last year while training for the marathon and lo and behold, it took! So I do believe you can change your habits, thanks for suggesting this book.Terrihttp://tgorourke.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4387275476617323454.post-47460701825776571372009-07-10T23:29:13.990-04:002009-07-10T23:29:13.990-04:00I like that idea, plus the idea of not making excu...I like that idea, plus the idea of not making excuses.

I have visions of running as my commute (about 3 miles to work and back) but not when it's 100+ at night.<br /><br />And I agree, I try to reign in the complaints. If we all focused a little more on what was right (myself included), and not so much about what was wrong, we could all get on with the enjoyin' a lot more. :)Quixhttp://www.adjustedreality.com/blognoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4387275476617323454.post-59920346263855724002009-07-09T16:28:22.954-04:002009-07-09T16:28:22.954-04:00nice job on the double!!! i could be better about...nice job on the double!!! i could be better about complaining tooAronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17418163097675963683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4387275476617323454.post-53648981872671810052009-07-09T16:04:35.167-04:002009-07-09T16:04:35.167-04:00Awesome that you got out there again yesterday!
