One word: ROUTINE
"The secret of your future is hidden in your daily routine." Mike Murdock
Okay, okay. I know we've all heard it before.
And guess why that is.
Because it works!
For me, I have to work out first thing in the morning. The more I put it off, the more I convince myself that I'm too tired, too busy, just don't wanna, etc.
And so we have our routine down.
1. Get the kids up.
2. Feed the family.
3. 1/2 hour of cartoons for little man.
-This is when I prep for my workout: I make sure Lil' Miss is comfy in her swing, the dogs are settled, Little Man has a cartoon ready in his room and has gone potty (so he has no excuses to interrupt me), and I change my clothes and gather any materials I may need.
4. Workout
5. Shower
6. Start the rest of the day
I have found that if I have a solid routine, the whole family knows what to expect and, except for the occasional hiccup, things run quite smoothly.

Same here we're about as clockwork as can be. . . most of the time. :)
