Bad Habits

I have always had a bad habit of saying I will do something and then never doing it.
Well, I am changing - part of this Quarter's goal was to start clearing out my bedroom and finally, I have started to do this and have found I have more stuff than I thought I had!
This is no surprise though - but at least I can see the carpet now!
There is still a long way to go and that 'imaginary' box (I don't have one physically big enough!) is getting full of things to sell/give away or eventually throw out.
Hopefully, I am on target for the minimalistic look, if not it will still be close enough.
As for the goal of more exercise, this is a goal I have always failed and still am, although I am at a fitter level than ever before, there is always room for improvement - and this is no exception, I need to work a lot harder on this goal, I have no excuses other than pure laziness - I have the correct clothing and footwear (I have since December!), so I really need to get my arse into gear!
Perhaps I need a target, like running walking a marathon, so I have a purpose behind the exercise.
Exercise has always been a weak part of me, I loathe it, although lately, I have been trying to enjoy walking, I still find it incredibly dull (unless I am walking round the shops).
I am definitely a trier though, I very rarely give up at the first hurdle - I'm that persistent pain in the posterior!
Giving something up is never easy, but it is virtually impossible unless there is an intended goal at the end of it, but I always thought that was a little redundant - making a goal to achieve a goal seems retired and never-ending, but maybe that is just me.
I am starting to feel I need more structure to my goals and to question my goals a little better, like Why do I want a minimalistic look for my bedroom?' - I have thought about it and it's because when everything is tidy and organised, I feel more relaxed and comfortable and can sleep better - so maybe the goal would be to relax more and to do that I need to reorganise.
So, my intended goal is to relax more and in order to fulfil that goal one of the tasks I need to complete is reorganisation, rather the actual goal be reorganisation I will make it a task, a 'thing to do' rather than a goal.
Does that make sense? Probably not...
