Rambling about potential fitness goals.

You don't necessarily need to put together a detailed master plan to be successful in business or life, just maintain a todo list of 20-30 top items, and pick one or two items from the list to prioritize and work on those until they're completed or resolved. Making some progress from one day to next is what matters.

Also, go for a 20-30 minute walk right now. And if that's too much, make it 10 minutes. Trying to commit to an hour or longer walk is what's holding you back. Under commit. Walk down the street and back right now. The cold air will wake you up.

I just did a 1 hour walk, 1 hour is reasonable, the reason why I dont commit to something meager like 20 minutes is that its too little to make a meaningful difference, I experimented a while back with walking everyday and was walking for 4 hours everyday, and though I had amazing results it wasn't sustainable, I dont want to walk for 4 hours everyday for the rest of my life, I figure if I can get in the habit of walking 2 hours a day it should be good.

That's great then, keep it up! My apologies, I was under the impression that you had yet to start walking again.
