    "Struggling and suffering are the essence of a life worth living. If you're not pushing yourself beyond the comfort zone, if you're not demanding more from yourself -- expanding and learning as you go - you're choosing a numb existence. You're denying yourself an extraordinary trip." - Dean Karnazes

    "If you run, you are a runner. It doesn't matter how fast or how far. It doesn't matter if today is your first day or if you've been running for twenty tears. There is no test to pass, no license to earn, no membership card to get. You just run." -John Bingham

    Don't think, just run.

    It's not the mountain you have to climb that slows you down, it's the stone in your shoe.

    -We must travel in the direction of our fear.

    - Your body achieves what the mind believes

    - do NOT stop

    - Success isn't how far you get but how far you traveled to get there

    Non-motivational
    -be your own kind of beautiful
    - Half of life is f**king up, the other half is dealing with it - rollins
    - I have nothing to offer but my own confusion - kerouac

    Mine are "Don't give up what you want most for what you want right now." Cause weight loss / health really just is a matter of making one small decision correctly in that moment, over and over.

    And "Get busy livin or get busy dyin." Shawshank Redemption! Make every day count for something.

    You gain strength, courage and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face. You are able to say to yourself, 'I have lived through this horror. I can take the next thing that comes along.' You must do the thing you think you cannot do. ― Eleanor Roosevelt

    One that I grew up with.

    One that's been on my MFP Profile for, IDK, 2-4 years >.<

    "Change hurts. It makes people insecure, confused, and angry. People want things to be the same as they've always been, because that makes life easier. But, if you're a leader, you can't let your people hang on to the past. " Richard Marcinko
