    I almost forgot John Wooden:

    "Individuals win games; teams win championships."

    "The true test of a man's character is what he does when no one is watching."

    “Talent is God given. Be humble. Fame is man-given. Be grateful. Conceit is self-given. Be careful.”

    One of my favorites:

    All things work together for the good of those that love the Lord and are called according to his purpose.

    It's a Bible quote that reminds me that no matter how bad things look, it will turn out to be for my good. I've been through some hard times, but God blessed me through those situations. Joseph's jealous brothers sold him into slavery, he was taken to Egypt where he became like a president of the nation and helped the nations of the world during a famine. He saw his brothers during this time and told them that what they did they meant for evil, but God meant it for good.

    Wondeful! Best one yet! Thank you..............:flowerforyou:

    Just Do It is also one of my favorite quotes. When it is 6 in the morning or 6 in the evening and I don't feel like doing it (exercise) I say to myself Just Do It! It will be done with in a hour. This works for me!

    These are some of my favourite motivational workout quotes:

    If you still look cute at the end of your workout you didn't train hard enough

    YOU control what your body looks like

    The thing about reaching your goal weight is that it is 100% possible. It's completely in your control. The only thing stopping you from getting there is you. So get out of the way

    A year from now you'll wish you had started today

    No matter how slow you go, you are still lapping everybody on the couch!

    You'll get a lot more compliments from working out than from sleeping in

    It takes 4 weeks to notice your body changing, 8 weeks for your friends and 12 weeks for the rest of the world. Give it 12 weeks. Don't quit

    Self pity will destroy relationships, it'll destroy anything that's good, it will fulfill all the prophecies it makes and leave only itself. And it's so simple to imagine that one is hard done by, and that things are unfair, and that one is underappreciated, and that if only one had had a chance at this, only one had had a chance at that, things would have gone better, you would be happier if only this, that one is unlucky. All those things. And some of them may well even be true. But, to pity oneself as a result of them is to do oneself an enormous disservice. Stephen Fry

    see my ticker :-) remind myself of that everytime I feel like giving up.

    And when I'm running/cycling I love "No matter how slow you're going you're still lapping those on the couch"

    There are loads of new ones on here I'm going to use though!!! Especially "push yourself not the bike"!! xx

    You must do the thing that you think that you cannot do.

    Do or do not. There is no try. - Yoda

    They can't stop what they can't catch.

    Life is change. Growth is optional. Choose wisely

    The task ahead is never greater then the strength within you


    I could go on and on.......
