Know your limits... but never stop trying to exceed them
Success isn't a result of spontaneous combustion. You must set yourself on fire. ~ Arnold H. Glasow

"If you always do what you always did, you'll always get what you always got."--Howard Hoffman
"Never give up on a dream just because of the length of time it will take to accomplish it. The time will pass anyway."
On the way from BEFORE to AFTER...
If it is to be, it is up to me!
When I was ready to work on the inside, the outside came along for the ride.
My world is expanding as my butt is shrinking!

Start doing what's necessary, then do what's possible, and suddenly – you'll be doing the impossible!
When you take responsibility for your actions, you give yourself unmeasurable power.
He who gets up one more time than he falls, makes it through...
Every time you are tempted to react in the same old way, ask if you want to be a prisoner of the past or a pioneer of the future. ~ Deepak Chopra ~

"Walk like you know where you're going and what you're going to do when you get there." (Even if you don't have a clue!)
IT'S NOT ABOUT HOW GOOD YOU ARE BUT HOW BAD YOU WANT IT!!

" It's hard to fail; but it's worse to never have tried."
"Excuses are available to you in abundance, but what value are they? Forget the excuses. Forget about waiting for the perfect moment. Now is the time to get started.---Ralph Marston
Discipline is remembering what you want.
We can reverse years of damage to our bodies by deciding to raise our standards for ourselves, then living differently. Old wounds heal, injuries repair, and the whole system improves with just a few changes in what we put into our bodies and how we move them.
Rather than aiming for being perfect, just aim to be little bit better today than you were yesterday.
We fail because we don't strike the iron while it's hot. We don't take immediate action toward achieving what we want. We decide to wait until tomorrow, or next week, or even next month.
Do you choose to simply know the path, or do you choose to walk it?
You get whatever you settle for.
Have patience with all things, but chiefly have patience with yourself. Do not lose courage in considering your own imperfections, but instantly set about remedying them - every day begin the task anew. ~ Saint Francis de Sales
