This may sound odd, but there is a phrase that gets tossed around on the triathlon bulletin board I read that I find motivating when I am dragging a little bit:

Arnold H. Glasgow-
Your body is the baggage you must carry through life. The more excess the baggage, the shorter the trip.

Unknown Author-
You don't drown by falling in the water. You drown by staying there.

From GI Jane, I modified the lines to come to: "Hooyah, Master Chief, I'm full of joy." And “Pain is your friend. It is your ally. It lets you know when you are seriously hurt. It reminds you to finish what you started, and get the **** home. But you know what the best thing about pain is? It lets you know your not dead yet!”

From The underground guide to warrior Fitness:
"The **** with genetics, I will determine my physical prowest and strength"
"My strength and power orignate from my intensity and devotion"

Life shrinks and expands in proportion to one's courage. - Anais Nin

You must do the thing you think you cannot do.
