I have several good quote books. I use to post a new quote or 2 a day when I first got serious about my new weight loss adventure. Those were the dayz!!!

Because you become what you practice. What you are is what you have been. What you will be is what you are now.
"We are always getting ready to live, but never living." Ralph Waldo Emerson
For Today: I do not think "tomorrow" or "later" or "another time". I think NOW. Do it now, say it now, commit myself now. What can be done "someday", I can do today-just for the fun of it. {OA-For Today}
"Knowing others is intelligence; knowing yourself is true wisdom.
Mastering others is strength; mastering yourself is true power. If you realize that you have enough, then you are truly rich."
From the Book of Tao Te Ching
