    Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you could; some blunders and absurdities have crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day; you shall begin it serenely and with to high a spirit to be encumbered with your old nonsense. Ralph Waldo Emerson

    Start each day fresh!!!

    You have to be the change you wish to see in the world!

    "Yesterday you said tomorrow." <<--This one is on my bedroom ceiling for those days that I'd rather stay in bed.


    "Focus on how far you've come, not how far you have to go." <<--This one is on the wall in front of my treadmill.


    "Work on your weaknesses until they are strengths and work on your strengths until they are second nature."

    And this always helps me when I'm having a rough day/week/month:

    If hunger isn't the problem then eating isn't the solution.

    Always bring your own sunshine.

    The more you sweat in training the less you bleed in battle.

    The road of achievement has always belonged to the optimist.

    Without a struggle there can be no progress.

    If it's to be, it's up to me.

    Whatever you can do, or dream you can, begin it, boldness has genius, power and magic in it.


    I LOVE motivational quotes....have sooooo many!!!!

    "First they'll ask you why you're doing it. Later they'll ask you HOW YOU DID IT."

    I love this one because in the beginning of my journey my friends and family would always ask why. "You look great, you're working too hard." "Don't lose too much weight." "Some people will pay for a figure like yours."

    Now that my body is actually showing a difference, all I hear is "wow, girl you're slimming down!" "what do you do?" etc.

    It's difficult sometimes for people to see your goals and support them as much as you do in the beginning but don't allow that to stop you. Your happiness is greater than the doubt of everyone else.

    @KayGlaze - Love that. What you say is so very true.

    My favorite is "Sweat is just Fat Crying". That one makes me want to turn up the heat and give a bit more BURN !

    See! It works... think I'll go hop on the rowing machine, now. Ciao.

    My favourite that I chant throughout planking is "Suck it up now or you'll have to suck it in later"

    This is my kinda thread. I have so many that I love and save on facebook. One of my fav's from Michael Jordan:

    "Obstacles don't have to stop you. If you run
    into a wall, don't turn around and give up.
    Figure out how to climb it, go through
    it, or work around it."
    - Michael Jordan

    Fear can hold you prisoner, hope can set you free.

    Each day is a opportunity to be better than you were yesterday.

    Today is a gift, that is why it is called the present, accept it and use it wisely!

    Make Every Day Count!

    I think the phrase that sticks with me the most is from my previous trainer. He always told me "you can do anything for 30 seconds!"
    I still use this phrase all of the time. Even if I want to go longer, I still keep saying that I can do anything for 30 seconds.

    "No one ever says 'I wish I hadn't gone to the gym today'"- unknown

    this quote gets me thinking "ok I can save myself some self guilt and just go!"

    "Remember that guy that said, I quite"? Nor does anybody else.

    Being weak is a choice, so is being strong.

    I don't stop when I am tired, I stop when I am done

    Don't be ashamed of trying, every journey has to start somewhere.

    My quotes for the coming year:

    "Courage starts with showing up and letting ourselves be seen" Brene Brown

    "There are times to let things happen, and times to make things happen. Now is that time. You will either make things happen, watch what happens, or wonder what happened." - Dan Millman from No Ordinary Moments

    "Against the grain should be a way of life. What's worth the prize is always worth the fight. Every second counts 'cause there's no second try. So live like you'll never live it twice. Don't take the free ride in your own life" - Nickelback, If today was your last day.

    “Hold yourself to a higher standard than anyone else expects of you.“ - Henry Ward Beecher

    “Imaginary obstacles are insurmountable. Real ones aren't.“ - Barbara Sher
