What quote motivates you? Here is my motivator!

"If the world decides to catch up with me, it's a little victory." That's my motivator for life. It's from a song by Matt Nathanson and I'm getting the title "Little Victories" tattooed on me in the coming weeks

I haven't been able to find a quote for this but I heard somebody say this one time and it sounded exactly like what I needed:

"You're more likely to change the way you think by changing the way you act than to change the way you act by trying to change the way you think"

"Every passing minute, is a chance to turn things around."


I think of this when I feel so lazy to work out and have to push myself out of bed...

When you reach the end of your rope, tie a knot and hold on tight.

A few of my favorites!

"Your life does not get better by chance, it gets better by CHANGE." - Jim Rohn
"Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away." - Unknown
Similar to the above "And in the end, it's not the years in your life that count. It's the life in your years." - Abraham Lincoln
"If you can dream it, you can do it." - Walt Disney
"Whatever you are, be a good one" - Abraham Lincoln
"Take pride in how far you have come and have faith in how far you can go." - Unkown

Setting goals is great.......imagine reaching them!

There's no better revenge than looking good.

And I prove it by just staying cool before my "friends" who used to make fun of my diet and workouts.

"Make winter a reason, not an excuse." -Gary Allen, RD of MDI Marathon

Love that quote this time of year!

If you are tired of starting over- stop giving up!

Love this.

People often say that motivation doesn't last. Well, neither does bathing - that' why we recommend it daily. Zig Ziglar

Sylvester Stallone in Rocky Balboa (2006)

"Let me tell you something you already know. The world ain’t all sunshine and rainbows. It’s a very mean and nasty place, and I don’t care how tough you are, it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain’t about how hard you hit. It’s about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward; how much you can take and keep moving forward. That’s how winning is done! Now, if you know what you’re worth, then go out and get what you’re worth. But you gotta be willing to take the hits, and not pointing fingers saying you ain’t where you wanna be because of him, or her, or anybody. Cowards do that and that ain’t you. You’re better than that!"

Mostly I just talk smack to myself in my interior monologue and call myself "mother f•••er"a bunch.

Hey, it works for me :-)
