Some read this quote this morning under a different heading, but I wanted more to see it. I have noticed that certain things catch more peoples eye than others. I felt this one was important not as just a quote of the day but for people to realize the importance of this in their path to success, and WHY you are here.
Good morning/evening all of my beautiful skinny friends on here!! I think this one really hit home this morning. Who are we all trying to be on here. Do some of us have our goals set to high to achieve, or that we are willing to achieve. I think everyone on here without a shadow of a doubt has the power to become the person or the body that they want to be on here. Yet as this one states do we all have to strive to be Lance Armstrong or the next olympic star. Do we have to be ripped with a 6 pack to be happy. Dont bring yourself down everyday thinking that you want to be the next model on the weightloss channel be who you are happy with. Rethink where your happy is and stay there for if you spend all your time looking at someone you dont want to be anyways you are not gonna want to stay steadfast towards your goal. Set attainable goals and set your mind to WIN and lets make it happen! Much love my friends!
If you can't be a pine on the top of the hill
Be a scrub in the valley--but be
The best little scrub by the side of the rill;
Be a bush if you can't be a tree.
If you can't be a bush be a bit of the grass,
And some highway some happier make;
If you can't be a muskie then just be a bass--
But the liveliest bass in the lake!
We can't all be captains, we've got to be crew,
There's something for all of us here.
There's big work to do and there's lesser to do,
And the task we must do is the near.
If you can't be a highway then just be a trail,
If you can't be the sun be a star;
It isn't by size that you win or you fail--
Be the best of whatever you are!
