One instance where I had to change my behavior would be when my Papa had me do some yard work for him.  He has very huge yard and we wanted me to pick up every twig and pull every weed from the mulch surrounding his entire yard.  I detest yard work, but he said he would pay me $20 for it, and I was desperate.  Well, it was horrible, I was sweating, my back hurt and it was so boring.  But, after a while and when I wanted to give up and quit, I remembered that I made a commitment and I was working towards a goal that I set for myself.  So, I kept pushing and I finally finished what I had set out to do.
