From Treadmill To Rowing Machine
Charlie researched the treadmill market. He was intent on good habits from thereon, starting with a mile walk per day in the bedroom.
"Do you think you'll last even a month?" asked Cheryl. Two months later, she noted that it made a great drying rack for his shirts and undershirts.
Nothing is as firm as a habit. Charlie researched exercise bikes. A 5-mile ride in the morning was the way to start a day. "That thing," said Cheryl after two months, "is perfect for drying pants and pillowcases."
The rowing machine – the next purchase – was better yet for drying socks.
