How should I combat an all or nothing attitude when trying to make an exercise habit stick? I have a tendency to think that its only worth doing a really intense work out and if I fail during it I’m not motivated to do it the next morning. Instead of doing something easier I just don’t do anything at all. Also should I have breakfast before exercising? I feel so deprived working out on an empty stomach which also makes it harder to motivate me to do it. However, I feel like a failure, not disciplined enough and that it’s not worth working out unless it’s on an empty stomach. So mornings when I do have breakfast straight after waking up because I’m starving, I then won’t work out because I feel I’ve blown the routine because I haven’t done it in the correct order.

Maybe try setting a long term goal, like exercise for 30 minutes. Then start with something easier like 5 minutes the first day.
