#373 100%

Somewhere I once read that it is easier to do things 100% of the time than 98% of the time.  How true that is.  If I had any opportunity where it was "ok" not to blog, I probably would have written only a third of these.  I think the 100% rule applies for lots of things -- really to any of the commitments you make.  Once it is ok to have an excuse, the reasons not to do something come easily.

What is out there that you commit to do and are willing to do it 100% of the time?  Maybe it is doing physical therapy exercises twice a day, writing in a journal once a day, turning in your expense reports every week or even balancing your checkbook once a month.  Whatever it is, give it 100% -- not any less -- and you'll find you actually keep more those promises.
