    There is a Swedish quote that I like: "Det är vägen som är mödan värd." It means "It is the journey that makes the trouble worth while." I remind myself this when I get too impatient with my slow weight-loss. I have to savor every moment.

    Be more concerned with your character than your reputation, because your character is what you really are, while your reputation is merely what others think you are.

    John Wooden

    This is pretty awesome, as is
    The pain you feel today, will be the strength you feel tomorrow

    Just what I needed this morning - so thank you! :flowerforyou:

    Just because it is, doesn't mean it should be

    From the film Australia [Lady Ashley and Drover]

    Although in the film it refers to discrimination it resonates with me on a personal level for many other reasons too.
    In my head I interpret it as Just because it is, doesn't mean that's the way it has to be

    At the moment I am overweight...doesn't mean that's the way I have to stay
    I am not as fit as I would like to be....doesn't have to stay that way etc.

    It really motivates me and makes me feel that while I may have to accept that this is the way things are right at this very moment in time...I can make the changes right now, this very second that can alter that very fact.

    LOL
    Deep as a deep dish pizza this morning!

    My more recent favorite: Arnold Schwarzenegger: “The last three or four reps is what makes the muscle grow. This area of pain divides the champion from someone else who is not a champion. That's what most people lack, having the guts to go on and just say they'll go through the pain no matter what happens.”

    I listen to this before every race now...can't get enough! I think it was a Nike commercial a few years back to. I love it. Brings out the former athlete in me.
