So This Is What It's Like

I'll admit it. Lately, I've been less than motivated to go to the gym. It's not even that I've been super busy--I just find it hard to carve out dedicated gym time in my scheduled. I've decided to recharge my gym routine with an idea I saw on Pinterest.

I created this "Gym Jar" -- the jar was about $2.50 at Whole Foods (spice section), and I already had the stickers from my adventures in scrapbooking. Each time I make it to the gym, I'll add a dollar to this jar. It's like a tip jar in that sense. And even though it might seem silly, I think it will really help to motivate me! As a college student, I have a fairly tight budget. However, a dollar a few times a week is definitely doable (and will help me to spend less money on things like junk food!). Slowly and surely, the dollars will add up! I'm hoping to get to $50 and then treat myself to a nice new sweater, scarf, or a few pieces of jewelry.

What do you think of this idea? How do you motivate yourself to go to the gym? Let me know by commenting!

Love,
Sarah
