    Another of my all time favorites..."It's much easier to get up and work out than it is to look in the mirror every day and not like what you see!"

    Saw this somewhere else on the site and it has worked for me so far. "The only thing I hate more than running/exercising is weighing (insert weight here)."

    I saw a picture on Pinterest of a little girl who has two artifical legs and a guy who has two artifical legs who are running and when I feel like I am ready to give up I think of that little girl and I keep pushing myself because if they can do it with artifical legs and smile I need to keep pushing and be grateful for what I have and work harder...

    When I feel like stopping midway during an exercise, I tell myself "Pain is weakness leaving the body..."

    Sometimes, when I'm running, I'll ask myself "If I were being chased by zombies, would I be ready to give up?".

    About RUNNING...

    "It's very hard in the beginning to understand that the whole idea is not to beat the other runners. Eventually you learn that the competition is against the little voice inside you that wants to quit."

    "Make it happen, SHOCK every single one of them!"

    Sweat is your fat crying. I know it's cheesy but my friend and I use it to motivate one another when we are dripping from a workout and want to slow down

    "When you feel like quitting think about why you started."
    LOVE that! I know I'm going to have that running through my head on a hard day.

    Strive for progress not perfection. The only person you are in competition with is the you from yesterday. A year from now you will wish you had started today.
