Just wanted to share my favourite quote with everyone. Hope we can start making this group more active.
“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won’t feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do."
- Marianne Williamson, A Return To Love
Hope it inspires you

New to this group. LOVE it! So many great quotes. A true treasure trove!
I'm always looking for short phrases that I can say to myself when I need encouragement. In my opinion, what you put into your mind is just as important to success as what you put into your body
Currently I use:
Victory, not defeat!
I can do hard things!
I can. I will. I must.
Thanks all for the great new ideas!1 -

Im a harry potter fanatic, but Ive found that quotes have all sorts of meanings.
one of my all time favorites would have to be.
"Of course it's in your head, but why on earth should that mean that it's not real"-Dumbledore
Working out and eating healthy is a mental game, and people seem to think that its all that easy, well if it was all that easy I wouldnt have been over weight all my life. YOu have to be in the right mindset to do such things, Ive done diet after diet through the years and ended up quitting. But now I have the right mentality to turn everything around1 -

Finding Nemo: "when life gets you down, you know what you have to do ... just keep swimming, just keep swimming ..."
Pops into my head when I think about stopping a workout and also if I'm going through tough times generally - has the added benefit of making me smile which helps with the tough times.
I know, I'm a big kid!1 -
