    I have two:

    The Slight Edge: Simple disciplines repeated over time will create success, while simple mistakes repeated over time will create failure. Jeff Olson

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

    I love all the new inspiration the posters to this thread are bringing... my favorite line to myself comes from that sily egg commercial -

    "If you want to be incredible, eat incredible"...

    Here's mine (too many to share just one!):

    "Oh, my friend, it's not what they take away from you that counts. It's what you do with what you have left." ~Hubert Humphrey

    "I'm not what I have done, I'm what I've overcome" ~Fireflight

    "Just when you think you've figured out all of life's answers, someone goes and changes all the questions." ~Anonymous

    "Failure is often temporary. Giving up makes it permanent." ~Anonymous

    “Defeat is not the worst of failures. Not to have tried is the true failure.”~George Edward Woodberry

    “It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.”
    Ooh, LOVE this!! :love:

    You never regret the workouts you do, only the ones you don't.

    "Where you are is a great place to be. Because from where you are, you can go anywhere you decide to go. When you live in the past, you get stuck in a world that no longer exists. When you live in a fantasy of denial or wishful thinking, you sever your connection to the very reality that can move you forward. Here and now is where you are. Here and now is where you can be your best. Here and now is full of opportunities and brimming with possibilities. Here and now your actions have consequences and you can control those consequences by wisely choosing those actions. Here and now you have power, the power to change your life. You may not have chosen where you are right now. Yet that really doesn't matter. What matters is what you choose to do now that you're here. You are in a great position right here, right now. As soon as you accept, acknowledge and appreciate where you are, you can begin to move to precisely where you would like to be. Make the most of your good fortune right here, right now."
    LOVE this, i really needed to hear this today, especially about not clinging to the past.

    This is something my dad said to me all the time growing up.

    "You can do anything you set your mind to."

    And in all aspects of my life I lived by that. I knew that if I wanted it bad enough I would have it.

    Not sure if this one has been said but it certainly helps me when I feel like giving up.

    Pain is temporary. It may last a minute, or an hour, or a day, or a year, but eventually it will subside and something else will take its place. If I quit, however, it lasts forever. That surrender, even the smallest act of giving up, stays with me. So when I feel like quitting, I ask myself, which would I rather live with?" ~ Lance Armstrong
