If you aim for nothing, you'll hit it every time.

I will love this post! The only one I can think of now is in my signature-

I have a few favorites:

"Start where you are. Use what you have. Do what you can." -Arthur Ashe

"When you're struggling with something, look at all the people around you and realize that every single person you see is struggling with something, and to them, it's just as hard as what you're going through."-Nicholas Sparks, Dear John

"You can't get out of life, what you're not willing to put into it"

"The greatest mistake you can make in life is to continually be afraid you will make one."

"Success is perseverance, not perfection."

"quality over quantity" - p90x

"In the end, you are responsible for your own happiness..."

Dodgeball movie (Lance Armstrong explaining quitting to Vince Vaughn) "Quit? You know, once I was thinking about quitting when I was diagnosed with brain, lung and testicular cancer, all at the same time. But with the love and support of my friends and family, I got back on the bike and I won the Tour de France five times in a row. But I'm sure you have a good reason to quit. So what are you dying from that's keeping you from the finals?"

"a year from now you will wish you had started today"

"if you change nothing, nothing will change"

"do your best & forget the rest" - p90x

“The only way of finding the limits of the possible, is by going beyond them into the impossible”

“Life is a game – play it. Life is a challenge – meet it. Life is an opportunity – capture it.”

“The only way you will find success before hard work is in the dictionary.”

“Opportunities don’t happen, you create them.”

“It’s not the cards you’re dealt, it’s how you play the game.”

“Life isn’t about learning how to weather the storm. It’s about learning how to dance in the rain.”

“Create your own destiny. If you don’t, someone else will.”

"Ladies and gentlemen, take my advice, pull down your pants and slide on the ice."

I hated every minute of training, but I said, "Don't quit. Suffer now and live the rest of your life as a champion."
Muhammad Ali

Do something each day that may inspire someone else. (a variation of lead by example)

Nobody said it would be easy, all that was said is that it would be worth it!
I love that quote, it's on my desktop and my quote on my MFP page.

"Nobody can go back and start a new beginning, but anyone can start today and make a new ending."
I love this one

I often say to myself, though "The pain is a temporary discomfort, the result is entirely worth it" (I use this in all aspects of my life)

I don't train to win contests.
I don't train to look pretty.
I don't train to make friends.
I don't train to look at some chick's *kitten*.

I train and train very hard because it's painful, it's demanding, it's uncomfortable. I like that. Time to bleed.

The only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars...
- Jack Kerouac

“Nothing is impossible. The word itself says I’m Possible.”
