Should Wins

Often, it is hard to keep motivation and momentum going.  There is a constant dialogue between what I want to do vs. what I should do. 

I want to just lie in bed a while longer VS. I should get up and get moving.

I want to sit on the computer all day long VS. I should get something done around the house.

I want to have a couch day VS. I should get out and hike the dogs.

I want to have a ginormous piece of cake VS. I should have only a sliver.

I want a second portion of whatever food VS.  I should only have one helping.

I want to go out to eat VS. I should make something at home.

You get the drift.  Lately, the shoulds have won those competitions.  I'm hoping that pretty soon the shoulds will turn into wants, but its still a bit of a fight.
