Today's 10-minute walk is helping you stay fitness consistent.

Keep talking about how hard it is to build habits might be the hardest part of fitness,

building the habit. And I've also mentioned from time to time that for me at least, one of the hardest parts

of this hard thing to do is remembering. I do all the right things. I start small, I think long,

and then inevitably, I just flat out forget.

And this is embarrassing.

This is embarrassing.

This is a habit that has been established.

And yet the other morning, I forgot to floss.

I always brush floss.

Brush floss.

The other morning, after I brushed, I just walked out of the bathroom, totally forgot to floss.

Now, I understand we're getting into TMI, too much information territory here, but I want to make a point.

The point is that it's a common thing, I believe,

that as you're building a habit, even after a habit is established, sometimes you can just forget. You just forget to do it. The other morning, my mind was full.

I was thinking of other things.

I was distracted.

Building habits, creating habits is hard.

Even habits that are good for us.

Even habits that are an investment in our future, an investment in our health.

It's still hard.

Sometimes you don't feel like it, and sometimes you simply forget.
