Motivational Quote - The reason why people give up is because they focus on how far they have to go instead of how far they've come.

It's definitely important to look toward your goals, but it's also good to keep one eye looking back to remind yourself of how far you've come! Remember your accomplishments the next time you have a bad day--you ARE making progress!

Well said....

Turning negative thinking into positive is a major achievement. It makes getting to where I'm going, an easier journey. While I still have a distance to travel, I've already come so far!!

I look at both how far I have come and how far i have to go yet. Then I look at my girls and think this is so they have me around awhile longer yet.

This is so true, i use to get so overwhelmed by how much weight I have to lose,but recently rather than say i still have a long way to go before i reach my target i have been saying another 1lb and i will have lost one stone, and i have not even thought about how many more i have to lose. it wasn't until i read the quote above that i reallized that i had changed the way i think about my journey and that seems to have helped. I now set targets of 7lbs to lose, it is a far easy goal to reach and so far i have kept on target :)
