Make everything you do in life an independent attempt! You are sort of re-born every second (really and not really) so treat everything positive that you attempt to do such as working out, writing a book, and building a relationship as if you have never failed before! Love like you have never been hurt before. Work out now even if you ate like a pig the whole last week and haven't worked out in two years! Do you have the energy right now to get up and jog a mile? So do it...
