"Only those who will risk going too far can possibly find out how far one can go. "
"It is not the critic who counts;
not the man who points out how the strong man stumbled or where the doer of deeds could have done them better.
The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena,
whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood;
who strives valiantly;
who errs and comes short again and again;
who knows great enthusiasms,
the great devotions;
who spends himself in a worthy cause;
who at the best, knows in the end the triumph of high achievement,
and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly
so that his place shall never be with those timid souls
who know neither victory or defeat."

Your belief determines your action
and your action determines your results,
but first you have to believe.
Hang on to your dreams.
Ignore those who try to discourage you.
Just do it. Keep trying no matter how hard it seems, it will get easier.
Love yourself first and most. Make it happen.
Never lie, cheat or steal, always strike a fair deal.
Open your eyes and see things as they really are.
Practice makes perfect.
Quitters never win and winners never quit.
Read, study and learn about everything important in your life.

Happy Birthday Breeanna
By your own soul, learn to live
And if men thwart you take no heed.
If men hate you have no care.
Sing your song, dream your dream,
Hope your hope and pray your prayer
There is only one you for all time.
Fearlessly be yourself

Every failure, obstacle or hardship is an opportunity in disguise.
Success in many cases is failure turned inside out.
The greatest pollution problem we face today is negativity.
Eliminate the negative attitude and believe you can do anything.
Replace 'if I can, I hope, maybe' with 'I can, I will, I must.'
Never allow anyone to rain on your parade
and thus cast a pall of gloom and defeat on the entire day.
Remember that no talent, no self-denial, no brains, no character,
are required to set up in the fault-finding business.
Nothing external can have any power over you unless you permit it.
Your time is too precious to be sacrificed in wasted days combating the menial forces of
hate, jealously, and envy.
Guard your fragile life carefully.
Only God can shape a flower, but any foolish child can pull it to pieces.

it is important to remember
that we cannot become what we need to be by remaining who we are.
Dream lofty dreams, and as you dream,
so shall you become.
Your vision is the promise of what you shall one day be;
your ideal is the prophecy of what you shall at last unveil.

You cannot dream yourself into a character;
you must hammer and forge yourself one.
There are people who put their dreams in a little box and say,
"Yes, I've got dreams, of course I've got dreams."
Then they put the box away and bring it out once in a while to look in it,
and yep, they're still there.
These are great dreams, but they never even get out of the box.
It takes an uncommon amount of guts to put your dreams on the line,
to hold them up and say,
"How good or how bad am I?"
That's where courage comes in.

Any dream worth dreaming, is worth the effort to make it some true.
The big challenge is to become all that you have the possibility of becoming.
You cannot believe what it does to the human spirit
to maximize your human potential and stretch yourself to the limit.

Choose to believe something good can happen.
Expecting it to happen energizes your goal
and actually gives it momentum.
What you expect to happen, happens.
If you expect to succeed, you'll succeed.

Hey Dawn, Are you able to share what your 15 week out diet looks like at this point? Be curious to see how a female bb's contest diet looks compared to the generic ones for most guys on here.

well last 2 yrs i trained under Dave Palumbo so i did Keto
this yr training with Ms.O Iris Kyle and diets VERY DIFFERENT
right now i got 1 less meal so 5 instead of 6
but way more carbs both starchy & fiberous
but alot less fat
and not only is diet way different so i training way more high rep & high volume
bottom line is i do what i'm told when someones coaching me
and i put all my trust in them and follow instructions
the thing with contest prep is there are many ways to get there
main thing is to follow 1 way entirely
not a bit of this and a bit of that
thatz where people skrew up by listening to too many people
find someone you trust and listen to them and them alone
if you don't respect them enough or trust them enough
find someone you do
that is one of the nicest things anyones ever said to me :bighug
you have no idea how hard i've tried to bring them up
they've always been my nemesis
but the last few yrs they've really come up
and the person i haveta thank them for is IFBB PRO CARLOS RABIEI
who i've trained with every tues for legs for a yr and 1/2
until last wk when i started contest prep with IRIS KYLE
but i still drive to Poco to Worlds Gym to be in Carlos' presence
he's such a great man & friend

I learned that we can do anything, but we can't do everything …
at least not at the same time.
So think of your priorities not in terms of what activities you do,
but when you do them.
Timing is everything.

It cannot be coaxed or bribed;
pay the price and it is yours."

I define self-control, in the beginning of life,
as the choice of achieving what I really want by doing things I really don't want to do.
Once this becomes a habit,
discipline becomes the choice of achieving what I really want
by doing the very things I now want to do!
I really believe that a disciplined life becomes a joy
but only after we have worked hard to practice it.
all dreams can come true if we have the courage to pursue them
