Diligence is a zealous and careful nature in one's actions and work, exemplified by a decisive work ethic, budgeting of one's time, monitoring one's own activities to guard against laziness, and putting forth full concentration in one's work
{thanks Wikipedia!}
To me, Diligence doesn't mean immediate rewards. But instead, chipping away every day, doing the very best I can, and eventually I will achieve my goals.
I think this is my 2010 word because I'm a very "black or white" person. If I mess up with one choice, my whole day/week/month is thrown off. I need to get over that and understand that weight loss and fitness is a journey -
one that requires constant tweaking, reevaluating, perseverance and perfecting.
So there it is.
DILIGENCE.
