A good tip while exercising

Set goals while your exercising. They don’t have to be big, just step by step goals that you can accomplish and make progress with. The Runner’s Guide to the Meaning of Life suggests that you focus on your little goals one at a time, like if you were running up a mountain, just pay attention to the short strides and not when your going to reach the top because often it may seem longer if you just focus on the end.
