    We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence then is not an act, but a habit.

    Be stronger than your strongest excuse.
    Don't look back; you're not headed that way.
    I'm going to succeed because I'm crazy enough to think I can.
    Never underestimate what you are capable of.
    Every accomplishment starts with the decision to try.
    I don't stop when I'm tired; I stop when I'm done.

    If you really want to do something, you'll find a way. If not, you'll find an excuse.

    Prepare to be quote bombarded!


    Whether you think you can, or you think you can't - you're right.

    Never give up on a dream just because of the time it will take to accomplish it - the time will pass anyway.

    Don't wish for it, work for it.

    Never give up on something you can't go a day without thinking about.

    A workout is a personal triumph over laziness and procrastination.

    Never hope for it more than you work for it.

    The meaning of life is not simply to exist, to survive, but to move ahead, to go up, to achieve, to conquer.

    Being challenged in life is inevitable, being defeated is optional.

    Imagine yourself 6 months from now - don't stop, it'll be worth it.

    You need to understand that life isn't what you're given, it's what you create, what you conquer and what you aim to achieve.

    Nothing tastes as good as being fit feels.

    Today I will do what others won't, so tomorrow I can do what others can't.

    I heard these both on a different post some time ago, and have them on my computer at work:

    "Pain is weakness leaving your body"

    "You don't knned motivation, you just need to get off your *kitten* and GO!"

    Failure is not falling down; failure is staying down when you have the choice to get back up.

    Thank you so much for these - my motivational arsenal will be replenished! :flowerforyou:

    Believe in yourself! Have faith in your abilities! Without a humble but reasonable confidence in your own powers you cannot be successful or happy.
    Norman Vincent Peale

    Even if you fall on your face, you're still moving forward.

    I don't believe you have to be better than everybody else. I believe you have to be better than you ever thought you could be.

    Not a motivational quote, but it works for me.

    "I thought about giving up...but then I remembered who is watching." My daughter means the world to me and I want her to see me as a champ and a conqueror. If I don't show her that you can do anything when you put your mind to it, who will?

    "Squeeze those buns or noone else will!" Denise Austin used to say that. I love her DVDs. She's so encouraging.

    "Sweat is fat crying." I find it amusing and motivating.

    "Nothing tastes as good as thin feels." I didn't really get that one until I'd lost a lot. I was like, "No, ice cream has to taste better." But it's true. :)

    run when you can -- walk when you have to -- crawl if you must -- but finish.

    "Do something instead of killing time. Because time is killing you." -Paulo Coelho
    I found it recently and it makes me think of what could be in my future if I don't get ahold of myself.
    My entire family (female's at least) are overweight, my grandmother has diabetes,
    I was always the thin one, I was in gymnastics for 6 years (until I was 13)
    and was rail thin (even though technically still within a reasonable weight) at that point in my life. (4'10 and 92 lbs)
    I got up to 142 pounds and realized how much I had gained over the last 2 years.
    Now I'm down 12 pounds and this quote really helps me keep going!

    Life isnt about waiting for the storm to pass,its about learning to dance in the rain

    To achieve great things we must live as though we were never going to die

    Walk in peace for you are remembered by the tracks we leave

    "Anything that I’ve ever attempted I was always willing to fail. You can’t always win, but don’t be afraid of making decisions. You can’t be paralyzed by fear of failure or you will never push yourself. You keep pushing because you believe in yourself and in your vision and you know that it is the right thing to do, success will come so dont be afraid to fail." Arnold Schwarzenegger
