What's your motto? What saying gives you encouragement, or makes you wanna go out there and kick some butt? I would love to hear what inspires you! Here's my quote...


"Far better it is to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs even though checkered by failure, than to rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy nor suffer much because they live in the gray twilight that knows neither victory nor defeat."
-Theodore Roosevelt

So what's yours?

    LOL I think it was Jillian Michaels who said that.

    I Like :
    1- "He who fail to plan is planning to fail." - Winston Churchill

    2- "I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work." - Thomas Edison
    3- "I never regret when I go it, but I always regret it when I don't."- I tell myself this one when I want to skip my workout and it motivates me to go it anyway. :)

    Not sure who said it first but the Marines use this line in a lot of their advertising (t-shirts, bumper stickers, etc).

    I use this one to remind myself that I am my only limiter.

    A wise man once told me, the two most important days of your life: the day you were born and the day you realize why you were born. FInd your passion. Allow it to lead you to your purpose and then just do what you were put on this earth to do. You have to want to change, you have to want to experience new things, you have to want this for yourself. You see passion engages people, passion moves people, it is passion that creates change. As long as you got passion you can do anything you put your mind to. You can exceed the greatest things in the world if you just put your mind to it if you have the passion inside of you. -no clue

    Look up...get up..and don't ever give up. -no clue

    You can’t be paralyzed by fear or failure or you will never push yourself. You keep pushing because you believe in yourself and in your vision, and you know that it is the right thing to do and success will come so don’t be afraid to be fail. -Arnold Schwarzenegger

    You can usually think of at least a hundred reasons why you should actually stop...but there is always one reason you should keep going. -some female bb, don't recall the name

    Your dreams are always gonna be the most important to you than they will be to anybody else. So keep dreaming. Keep believing. Keep pressing forward. -Kai Greene

    I have a couple quotes I like...
    1) "No one ever drowned in sweat"
    2) "It's actually pretty simple, you either do it or you don't...just do it!!"
    3) "When someone tells you 'you can't', turn around & say 'watch me!'
    & one of my most important ones is 4) "Strength doesn't come from what you can do...it comes from overcoming the things you once thought you couldn't"

    My profile page:

    The Kickass Woman’s Manifesto

    I AM STRONG
    I’ve gone thru hell and kept walking. I know my weaknesses.

    I AM WORTHY
    It took me a long time to believe that. I’ve worked thru my “unworthiness”.

    I AM BEAUTIFUL
    And no one needs to convince me of that anymore. I’ve dropped the illusion of not enough.

    I AM IMPERFECT
    I have imperfections but that doesn’t make me IMperfect. I am PERFECT as I am.

    I AM ME
    I thought I was lost and alone, but now I realize that I was always with me.




    You Are Amazing.
    As. you. are.
    Stronger than you know.
    More beautiful than you think.
    Worthier than you believe.
    Passionate about making a difference.
    Fiery when protecting those you love.
    Learning. Growing. Not alone.
    Warm. Giving. Generous.
    Quirky. Sexy. Funny. Smart.
    Flawed. Whole. Scared. Brave.
    And so, so, so.much.more.
    Be Strong. Be Confident. Be You.

    YES!!

    Don't turn your back on bears, men you have wronged, or the dominant turkey during mating season.



    A year from now, you may wish you had started today.
