Hi All!

I love quotes and am always trolling google for new ones....today my quote is:

If you always put limits on everything you do, physical or anything else it will spread into your work and into your life. There are no limits. There are only plateaus, and you must not stay there, you must go beyond them. – Bruce Lee

What words keep you going when you're feeling like you need a boost?

    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 and fabulous?

    Actually, who are you not to be?

    You are a child of God.

    Your playing small does not serve the world.

    There's nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other

    people won't feel insecure around you.

    We were born to make manifest the glory of
    God that is within us.

    It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone.

    And as we let our own light shine,
    we unconsciously give other people
    permission to do the same.

    As we are liberated from our own fear,
    Our presence automatically liberates others.

    —Marianne Williamson

    “If you think you are beaten, you are;
    If you think you dare not, you don't.
    If you'd like to win, but think you can't
    It's almost a cinch you won't.
    If you think you'll lose, you've lost,
    For out in the world we find
    Success being with a fellow's will;
    It's all in the state of mind.

    If you think you're outclassed, you are:
    You've got to think high to rise.
    You've got to be sure of yourself before
    You can ever win a prize.
    Life's battles don't always go
    To the stronger or faster man,
    But soon or late the man who wins
    Is the one who thinks he can.”
    ― Walter D. Wintle

    “Let me tell you something you already know. The world ain’t all sunshine and rainbows. It is a very mean and nasty place and I don’t care how tough you are, it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life.

    But it ain’t about how hard you hit; it’s about how hard you can get hit, and keep moving forward. . It’s How much you can take, and keep moving forward. That’s how winning is done.

    Now, if you know what you’re worth, then go out and get what you’re worth. But you gotta be willing to take the hits, and not point fingers and blame other people. Cowards do that and that ain’t you. You’re better than that!”

    "True commitment is serious and it is powerful.
    Commitment is not just saying you'll do it.
    Commitment is doing it.
    True Commitment is not conditional, for to be committed means to be absolutely committed.
    Commitment is more than doing just what is convenient or comfortable.
    Commitment is doing what is necessary.
    Commitment is making the sacrifices and the tradeoffs that are required to uphold it.
    Commitment is more than just wishing for the right conditions.
    Commitment is working with what you have.
    Commitment is not easy.
    Commitment does not back down or run away at the first sign of trouble.
    Commitment perseveres until the goal is reached.
    Commitment does not waste time and effort whining or complaining or seeking to find blame.
    Commitment adjusts to reality and moves forward.
    Too many people have been deceived for too long, and have come to expect that they can know fulfillment without the gritty effort of commitment.
    They are sadly mistaken.
    Real, solid commitment is real work.
    And well worth it.
    The evidence is overwhelming -- it gets results like nothing else can. "
    --Ralph Marston
