Five daily blogs about life's 5 big choices on five different sites.
Do you beat yourself up when you break your promise to exercise? To eat healthier? To get more sleep? Human nature probably.
Or, simply overestimating our schedules and failing to plan for the inevitable unexpected things – life.
I went 0 for 3 yesterday. How’d you do?
Got big plans for today?

This morning, at 4:50AM, while deciding what to write here at Lane 8, found a post I had started in August 2009, but had never finished, never posted.
In watching these two videos, it’s clear where my mind was. It was on motivation. Everyday our minds should be on motivation. Everyday.
Many of you will never be runners. That’s ok. Never want you to feel like you should be a runner. But I absolutely want you to feel you should do something. Walk, bike, dance, roll, swim, stairs, yoga, gym, ski…. it doesn’t matter, unless it matters to you.
“Everyday courage has few witnesses. But yours is no less noble because no drum beats for you, and no crowds shout your name.” — Robert Louis Stevenson
Maybe you believe in yourself, or maybe you don’t.
The more days that you go without quitting what you you really want to do, the stronger your belief will become.
There really is no other way to change.
You simply must have resolve. A goal is not enough.
You must want this for the rest of your life.
Remember, your everyday courage will have very few witnesses.
How’s that sound?
Drumroll please……
Wait. But first, let’s just make sure we’re all on the same page. Two days ago was the anniversary of John Lennon’s death, and the topic of yesterday’s post.
But today’s Lane 8 blog post is not about John Lennon, it’s about motivation.
It’s also about the number one most contagious thing (and greatest success factor) in the world when it comes to motivation.
Are you ready?
Okay, back to the drumroll. Drumroll please…..
The number one most contagious thing in the world is…….ENTHUSIASM!!!!!
Can you hear the echos of some people saying, “That’s it? That’s all you got? You’re wasting my time!”
And others, “Yes, that’s exactly it. Try to do anything well without a mountain of enthusiasm. Seriously, go ahead and try.”
What works best for you?
