It reminds me of a picture that Zig Ziglar talked about on one of his old tapes. It was about using a water pump when you're camping. You can pump and pump and pump and not see much in way of results. If you stop, water drops back down to where it was when you started and you have to start all over again. If you had just continued a few pumps longer, you would have had your water.

I was reading an installment in another self improvement course this week where author talked about belief. You know, one of those believe and it will come true sort of things. Belief is important when you're trying to reach your goals, but it's really hard to believe when your habits are out of whack.

Does that make sense to you?

A Better Life? It’s All About The Choices You Make

You can choose to eat right or choose to be overweight. You can choose to take care of your home or let it go. You can choose to exercise or watch TV. You can choose to do something or nothing.

Get in good habits. Then you'll feel good about yourself and what you can accomplish.
