motivational quotes

Post by musculArgirl2 »

I thought we could do a topic on your favorite motivational quotes not just for fitness but wellness in all aspects of your life. Usually fitness and health in other areas go hand in hand anyways!! I love to read them so i would love to hear more of them!


You are successful the moment you start moving toward a worthwhile goal" Charles Carlson


here's two others i like

Say what you mean..... and mean what you say.....but don't be mean when you say it. :)

"Be who you are and say what you feel because those who matter don't mind and those who mind don't matter." Dr Suess

People are often unreasonable and self-centered.
Forgive them anyway.
If you are kind, people may accuse you of ulterior motives.
Be kind anyway.
If you are honest, people may cheat you.
Be honest anyway.
If you find happiness, people may be jealous.
Be happy anyway.
The good you do today may be forgotten tomorrow.
Do good anyway.
Give the world the best you have, and it may never be enough.
Give your best anyway.
For you see, in the end, it is between you and God.
It was never between you and them anyway.
--- Mother Theresa

I got this from Cassie, when she was being strict with her workout & diet so she can compete. :)

The Girl In The Glass:
When you get what you want in your struggle for self...
And the whole world makes you queen for a day,
Just go to a mirror and look at yourself ...
And see what that girl has to say.
For it isn't your father or your mother, or friend ...
Whose judgment upon you must pass,
The person whose verdict counts most in the end ...
The woman staring back from the glass.
Some people may think you're a straight shootin' lass,
And tell you a wonderful lie,
But the girl in the glass says you're only a pass ...
If you can't look her straight in the eye.
She's the woman to please, never mind the rest,
For she's with you clear to the end,
And you've passed your most dangerous, difficult test ...
If the girl in the glass is your friend.
You may fool the whole world down the pathway of years,
And get pats on your back as you pass,
But your final reward will be heartaches and tears ...
If you've cheated the girl in the glass.

History has demonstrated that the most notable winners usually encountered heartbreaking obstacles before they triumphed. They won because they refused to become discouraged by defeats."
