I truly feel motivated after looking through several beautiful blogs and pages that really helped me focus. I have been planning to start dieting today (my husband and I just got back from vacation yesterday) for several days and I am newly motivated.
I want to feel sexy and beautiful and happy again...and I am always my happiest when I am in shape and exercising regularly. I am hoping this journey will be worthwhile and make me a better, happier person.
Some quotes that I found on various people's pages that are motivational:
- "To get what we've never had we must do what we've never done."
~Unknown
"Do or do not; there is no try."
~ Yoda
The First 2 Rules of Self-Improvement:
#1 - It will be difficult.
#2 - It will be worth it.
Run when you can, walk when you have to, crawl if you must; just
never give up.
- - Dean Karnazes Runner and author of Ultramarathon Man.
"You are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem and smarter than you think."
~ Christopher Robin
"They always say time changes things, but you actually have to change them yourself."
~Andy Warhol
It's YOUR life. YOU are responsible for YOUR results.
