Motivation, working out and blancing everything

  I had a pretty good weekened. I started it a little early this week due to St. Patricks day. Damn what a great holiday. It's just always a fun time and everyone always gets really drunk, myself included. I was decked out in my green and I had plenty of booze and  some goodsmoke too. What's the harm in that right?
  Speaking of partying I have done a lot less of it this year, and all in all I think its a good thing, because I have been working out (mainly lifting) a lot more. I mean dont get me wrong I'v been regularly lifting for a good four years now, but in the last three months Ive really stepped up my routines. I think it all comes down to being motivated and making it as fun as it can be. Ive always found that finding someone that is stronger than you to  lift with is good motivation in itself. It is really easy to stay stationary and settle when you workout by yourself, but if you have someone stronger pushing you it makes you want to go the extra mile, and if you bitch out you feel like a pussy. It might sound wierd but most of my motivation towards working out is just plain making myself go, because if I dont go I feel like a lazy piece of shit and I feel soft.
  It is easier said than done to just go workout everyday. It is a good goal but I feel like in order to balance everything you must make realistic goals. That is why i shoot for the 4-6 day range. No less than four days, but no more than six because I dont want to get burnt out. Also I think trying to follow a realistic diet for your lifestyle is also key. In college it is very hard to eat right, but I try my best and I never eat fastfood. I also try to eat as healthy as I czan during the week and be a little more leniant on the weekends. So far it has been working. I'm def. going to keep it up.
