    ooh, I got lots, I send one to my friend every day!! lol

    you'll never regret a workout, but you'll always regret skipping it.

    every piece of food your put into your mouth brings you one step closer or one step farther away from your goal.

    what you eat in private is worn in public.

    you miss 100% of the shots you don't take.

    work will win when wishing won't.

    you "get it" by getting off your *kitten*, working for it every second of every day for the rest of your life.

    I have so many. Keeping these in mind while I work out really encourages me/keeps me going. Hopefully some of them will work for you guys too :)

    Thanks Will SMITH:

    You got a dream... You gotta protect it. People can't do somethin' themselves, they wanna tell you you can't do it. If you want somethin', go get it. Period.

    Heres a few....

    When you feel like quitting... Think about why you started.....

    It's not whether you get knocked down... it's whether you get up.

    Well, its not an exact quote and he possibly never even said it, but its attributed to Churchill.
    Its something like, "Before El Alamein, we never had a victory. After El Alamein, we never had a defeat"
    And thats not even strictly true. But it does have that vibe, that you if you can take the blows for long enough, you will ultimately triumph
