Yes, but 1 hour is quite a big quantum (if you work out for 55 minutes, then stop, then what — all effort is lost?) Measuring minutes is better.<p>Another thing: the goal should be quite bold, bigger than you&#x27;d think first (something you can think of reaching in 2-3 years; don&#x27;t worry, it will be faster). Some examples: do 10,000 push-ups. Save $100,000 (or give $100,000 to charity, whatever suits you best). Run 2,000 kilometers. You start slow, but your progress accumulates, and then accelerates.
