Wow, I am not going to lie, that is a lot to take on all at once for anyone. I think once you get in a pattern and establish a habit the middle two shouldn't be that hard. My wife started regularly exercising lately and she really sees it as therapy. She gets up at 4:15 every morning before we go to work and does some form of fitness routine in our basement. I know there are some days she really doesn't want to do it but she still does because she knows she will feel horrible if she doesn't. At the end of the day, she is happy she did. I think journaling is a great way to hold yourself accountable and to stay on track. Many people don't appreciate the therapeutic and other positive benefits of journaling.
