Exercise is one of the most critical things that we can do to have a healthy lifestyle. And luckily, there are all kinds that we can choose from. There's aerobic exercise, jogging, brisk walking, jazzer size classes, that type of thing. We've got weight resistance, we've got stretching. So there's a lot of things that you can choose from to have exercise be part of your daily life. But the most important thing about exercise is regularity. And if you wish to be regular with your exercise, which is where the efficacy comes in, then I'd suggest to you two things. The first is keep a record of what your exercise is. Just take your calendar and block out when you want to exercise. On my calendar, it says appointment with Mr. Nike. That's how I know that that's the time that I'm going to exercise. And then when I do exercise, I record it on that calendar. Because when we try to keep it in our heads, we give ourselves way too much credit for exercise that never took place. You will never be so faithful to exercise on your own as you are with a partner. I can recall last February, the waking up to the alarm, the rain was horizontal, and I was under a down comforter. And I just thought, I'm not going. Why would I go? Who's getting out of bed? This is crazy. You got to be ridiculous to get out of bed and go run in the rain. Then I remembered I have a partner. I can't call his house at 05:00 in the morning and wake up his little kids. So I had to get dressed. I went down to the corner. We took our run. I was very glad that we had done it, but I never would have gotten out of bed if it hadn't been for the fact that I had a partner. So keeping a record, having a partner are two of the most important things you can do if you want to build regularity into your exercise program.
