How to stop gym from being scary
12th July, 2009 – 10:59 am
To many people, the thought of going to gym is great. To many others, the thought is daunting. “I don’t need the gym; I’ll just run around my road a few times a week.” This is such a common thought. Why, though, is the thought of going to gym so scary for many? Before, I continue, let me say […]

While chatting with a colleague yesterday, we got onto the topic of the weather and how it has affected our productivity.
