Lack of motivation

START USING YOUR TRAINING LOG ON THIS WEBSITE!!!!!!!!!!!!! really, because then we can see where you are coming from, what kind of training you are doing AND it holds you a little more accountable. and sometimes all we need is some accountability. and you can either get that by giving a friend a naked picture of yourself with the promise to lose weight, or you can really get in the groove here and start getting Inspire Me's from fellow BT'ers who know what you're going through. we are here - use us as much as you can.

as for getting you back out the door - what sparked your interest in tri training in the first place? what got you out the door before? where do you do with yourself when you don't have your tri desire? are other things going on in your life that has gotten you in a slump? what does training mean to you? how bad do you want it? how good does it make you feel?

.... oh ya?

well then!! GET BACK OUT THERE!!!!!!!!! (and fill out your dang logs  =) )

Echo these sentiments but I also find that all it take for me to get a bit inspired is to look back a few months, weeks or now a year ago at my progress.  It is easier to stick to the map when you can quantify how far along you are IMO.  Also, helps you to define your goals and check progress.  With no goals and no way of measuring em, it is very easy to drift.  Not saying you arent doing this in some other way, but the resources on this site are very helpful in staying focused (almost too focused sometimes methinks!!    )

My broker just sent me this quote:

" People who are unable to motivate themselves must be content with mediocrity, no matter how impressive their other talents."

----Andrew Carnegie

That's seriously impressive stuff - instant motivation, guaranteed!
