• Set targets. Start slow and gradually increase the target
  
• Stick to your plan. If you have set a time every day to walk try your best not to alter it
  
• Motivate yourself when you walk on your own
  
• Drink water during your walk
  
• Wear proper walking shoes
  
• Walk with a friend or your family as it is safer and much more fun
