Make some friends there or bring a friend if you're allowed. It'll be more fun! Especially if you get competitive.You could race with people, or see who could swim the longest, I don't know. Just have fun with it.

just go and have a good time... the trick is to get there. I do swimming 2-3 times a week all year round. It is really a wonderful exercise.

set a goal you want to obtain. Example. Say the pool has a timer. Start going and try to be able to do 2 laps in 40 or 50 seconds. Log your progress to give you a sense of forward movement towards your goal

Hire a personal trainer until you get into a routine. You are more likely to show up if you have an appointment. Put it in your day planner and do not change it. If someone asks you if you are available and it conflicts, tell them you can't and pick another time.

What I've found that works is if you put on a nice pair of goggles and jump in. Then you can dive for rings or coins like a dolphin.

One key lesson in almost anything in life: Anticipating it is always worse than doing it (with few exceptions). It means less time convincing ourselves to do it, and more time actually doing it.

Think of how much fun it will be. Or how good you will look after .
