    not really only about fitness, but I apply it to that and lots of other things

    ""Being challenged in life is enevitable, being defeated is optional." "



    Ability is what you're capable of doing. Motivation determines what you do. Attitude determines how well you do it. "


    "your biggest competition is yourself, once you get past that-you can do anything"


    If you think you can you can. And if you think you can't you're right.

    "Failure is only the opportunity to begin again more intelligently."

    ~~Be not afraid of going slowly-only of standing still~~


    "If you want things to be different perhaps the answer is to become different yourself"

    "Forget about proving others wrong. The only person you need to prove anything to is yourself."


    "The worst regret you can have in life is not for the wrong things you did, but for the things that you did not do."
    "To get something you never had, you have to do something you never did."

    The fight is won or lost far away from witnesses - behind the lines, in the gym, and out there on the road, long before I dance under those lights.
    Muhammad Ali

    Ali is amazing to look for inspirational quotes from. Love that man!

    This one isn't inspirational - it just cracks me up:

    If you even dream of beating me you'd better wake up and apologize.
    Muhammad Ali

    Not overtly fitness-related, but I like to remind myself of this one a lot when I'm working out and want to quit:

    "It is not the mountain we must conquer, but ourselves." - Edmund Hillary, who climbed Mount Everest in 1919.
