    Some good ideas to think about when deciding to stick with an exercise plan, but somewhat repetitive. The author wraps her suggestions around the MAPS plan - Motivation, Awareness, Permission, and Strategy.Other ideas include:1. Everything counts - all movement is important whether it is a short walk, housework or a 50 minute exercise class.2. Look for opportunities to move (OTM)3.Exercise as a chore vs a gift to yourself
