    "impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they've been given than to explore the power they have to change it. impossible is not a fact. it's an opinion. impossible is not a declaration. it's a dare. impossible is potential. impossible is temporary. impossible is nothing"

    "whatever you decide is your passion or purpose, just make sure you're too dumb to quit"

    "the greatest pleasure in life is doing the things people say we cannot do"

    "do one thing every day that scares you"

    "A year from now you will wish you had started today" - Karen Lamb

    THIS is what keeps me moving! In the past when I've tried diets and dropped them after a few weeks, months would go by and I would be still at the same weight. A year rolls around and I wish I had kept with that diet initially.
    This will NOT happen again. This time next year I will be living inside a new me!

    "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?" -Marianne Williamson

    If dreaming is a little dangerous, the cure is not to stop dreaming but to dream more.

    "I try to be my best"
    Repeatedly said in Joss Whedon's 'the Dollhouse' and I find it very inspirational.

    I love reading and collecting these. The following are currently hanging on my office wall. Can't remember where I got them.

    If you know your own worth, what need you care about the acceptance or rejection of others?

    People create big problems out of nothing. You create them because without problems you feel empty. The ego can exist only when it struggles.

    If you want to know who you are, you will have to close your eyes; you will have to go within. You will have to forget the whole world; you will have to forget what they say about you. You will have to go deep inside you and encounter your own reality.

    What would you attempt if you knew you could not fail?

    True love cannot be found where it does not exist, nor can it be hidden where it truly does.

    Life is too short to be anything but happy.

    I am a woman on a mission,
    Nothing can stop me, I’m stronger than ever
    I wanna see this through
    I am a woman on a mission,
    Whatever it takes I will do what I gotta do

    Lyrics to Gabriella Cilmi's 'On A Mission'
    Great to workout too!!!!

    Never put off until tomorrow what you can do today, because if you enjoy it today, you can do it again, tomorrow.

    Here are three I just found this week. Well, two, one's a joke:

    Don't give up what you really want for what you want right now!

    It is not your business to succeed, but to do right; when you have done so, the rest lies with God. C. S. Lewis

    Wisdom from my wise sister: With time, we may get fat because we accumulate so much information and wisdom in our heads that when there is no more room, it distributes out to the rest of our bodies. So we aren't heavy, we are enormously cultured, educated and happy. Beginning today, when I look at my butt in the mirror, I will think, "Good grief, look how smart I am!"

    Success is not a race, be patient.
    Success leads to success.
    Success is always a work in progress.
    Success doesn't come to you--you go to it.
    Success is a journey, not a destination. Focus on the process.
    Some people dream about success... while others wake up and work hard at it.
    Success is achieved and maintained by those who try-and keep trying.
    Everyday is a good day to SUCCEED!
    If at first you don't succeed-try, try again.....

    Here are just a few of my favorites that a friend of mine sends me every morning.
    'Do it for the body, for the confidence, for the pride. To look back and say, "never again." But, most importantly, do it for you.'
    'Earn your body today'
    'Your mind will always give before your body does. Keep pushing. Its always worth it.'
