This is an excerpt from an e-mail I receive from Jonathan Roche, No Excuses Workouts. I think it is worth reminding every one to look for and start celebrating your small victories.

"Celebrate your Small Victories!
Do you take the time to be proud of yourself and acknowledge your baby steps towards better health? Taking the stairs instead of the elevator, parking in the furthest spot at the grocery story, drinking 64 ounces of water during the day, doing your Interval or NEWO Workout, etc. should all be celebrated.
Don't be so busy that you do not take the time to be proud of yourself and don’t look down on the small changes that you are making to improve your health. By celebrating your small victories, you will have a heightened feeling of accomplishment (that is authentic and deserving) that will definitely keep feeding your motivation and results. So regardless of how small the step (an extra trip up and down the stairs while doing laundry), Celebrate your Small Victories"
