It seems alot of people I talk to can not find the time to go to the gym or exercise on their own. I actually wake up Monday through Friday at 5:15am to go to the gym for 45 minutes. How can you find the time to do the same thing? First, I would like to say, It's not easy!! It takes discipline. It means I don't watch TV pass 10pm or do any anything else. I simply can not or I will wake up exhausted.
Its best to place your gym time on your Outlook calendar or pencil it in on your paper calendar. No matter how busy you are, take this opportunity to take a break from the computer and rest your mind. Actually, you can still think while your running....this is the time I usually think of all the things I have to do during the day and when I will do it. I also think of organizing ideas and articles to publish on my blog. Exercise gives you the opportunity to think even though you may not be sitting in front of a computer or a desk.
If you can't get to the gym, take period walks outside on your breaks. I have a corporate job where I can walk outside in the corporate park. Sometimes I walk with a co-worker and other times I walk alone. If I take three 10-minute walks throughout the day, then that is 30 minutes of activity.
The bottom line here is that you need to look at your goals and priorities. If exercising is a priority to you, then you will need to rearrange your calendar to fit this into your schedule.
