My best tip: Create re-occurring calendar events for your exercise times. When a conflict arises, it forces you to consciously choose work over exercise, and often you'll find you have time for both.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
When I'm working, I always make time to get exercise into my schedule.
Balancing family and work is a top priority for me, and I treat it as such. Meaning, I actually put specific family time and events in my calendar so that precious time is dedicated and properly blocked off from any work that may try to sneak its way into my schedule.
I always find the time to exercise - kitesurfing, tennis or cycling - and to spend time with my loved ones.
Find a type of exercise that you love - whether it's dance, soccer, softball, anything - just as long as it keeps you active. If you love it, you'll dedicate yourself to it and stay involved.
Keep a strict, predictable schedule 365 days a year that has you eating, sleeping, and exercising at about the same times day in and day out.
Don't keep your own schedule - that will eat too much of your time keeping your own schedule. And when you are tired, stop. Because if you are too tired, you become not productive, and you are wasting time.
It's tricky when I'm constantly traveling and adjusting to new time zones and trying to also keep up with my workouts.
If you want an active schedule, you have to husband your time so you can act on the things that are important.
I have to get a workout in in the morning. Once my day starts, I'll have the best intentions, and it still won't happen: one of the kids needs to be picked up somewhere, I have to hop on a conference call, or I'm just tired. So I get it done in the A.M.
Exercise plays a huge role in keeping me sane, and that's my primary motivation to 'find time.'
