"Start where you are. Use what you have. Do what you can." -Arthur Ashe

"When you're struggling with something, look at all the people around you and realize that every single person you see is struggling with something, and to them, it's just as hard as what you're going through."-Nicholas Sparks, Dear John

"You can't get out of life, what you're not willing to put into it"

"The greatest mistake you can make in life is to continually be afraid you will make one."

"Success is perseverance, not perfection."

"quality over quantity" - p90x

"In the end, you are responsible for your own happiness..."

Dodgeball movie (Lance Armstrong explaining quitting to Vince Vaughn) "Quit? You know, once I was thinking about quitting when I was diagnosed with brain, lung and testicular cancer, all at the same time. But with the love and support of my friends and family, I got back on the bike and I won the Tour de France five times in a row. But I'm sure you have a good reason to quit. So what are you dying from that's keeping you from the finals?"

"a year from now you will wish you had started today"

"if you change nothing, nothing will change"

"do your best & forget the rest" - p90x

“The only way of finding the limits of the possible, is by going beyond them into the impossible”

“Life is a game – play it. Life is a challenge – meet it. Life is an opportunity – capture it.”

“The only way you will find success before hard work is in the dictionary.”

“Opportunities don’t happen, you create them.”

“It’s not the cards you’re dealt, it’s how you play the game.”

“Life isn’t about learning how to weather the storm. It’s about learning how to dance in the rain.”

“Create your own destiny. If you don’t, someone else will.”

"Nobody can go back and start a new beginning, but anyone can start today and make a new ending."

"The most splendid achievement of all is in the constant striving to surpass yourself and to be worthy of your own approval." -- Denis Waitley

Don't do things half-assed. If a thing is worth doing at all, it's worth doing as well as you can possibly do it. Pick out something you think is worthwhile and do it or work at it with passion. Do it with all your might. -- Hugh Young

All great masters are chiefly distinguished by the power of adding a second, a third, and perhaps a fourth step in a continuous line. Many a man had taken the first step. With every additional step you enhance immensely the value of your first. -- Ralph Waldo Emerson

The elevator to success is out of order. You'll have to use the stairs... one step at a time. -- Joe Girard

"Some things you have to do every day.

Eating seven apples on Saturday night instead of one a day
just isn't going to get the job done."
-- Jim Rohn

There is no sudden leap to greatness.
Your success lies in doing, day by day.
Your upward reach comes from working well and carefully."
-- Max Steingart

I don't train to win contests.
I don't train to look pretty.
I don't train to make friends.
I don't train to look at some chick's *kitten*.

I train and train very hard because it's painful, it's demanding, it's uncomfortable. I like that. Time to bleed.

The only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars...
- Jack Kerouac
