We should all be thankful for
those people who rekindle the inner spirit.
To educate yourself for the feeling of gratitude
means to take nothing for granted,
but to always seek out and value
the kind that will stand behind the action.
Nothing that is done for you is a matter of course.
Everything originates in a will for the good,
which is directed at you.
Train yourself never to put off
the word or action for the expression of gratitude.
Let us be grateful to people who make us happy;
they are the charming gardeners
who make our souls blossom.

Without resilience,
you might stubbornly hold on to some things that don't work
and repeat your mistakes.
Being rigid and inflexible will cause undue stress.
Be willing to change
Being rigid with yourself and your rules indicate that you are resisting change.
You don't have to remain consistent to the old you
and the things that you have said or done in the past.
Change is absolutely necessary for personal growth
and success especially if what you have done have not worked out.
When you improve yourself,
your world will change for the better.

Determination.

Optimism is essential to achievement
and it is also the foundation of courage and true progress.
Whoever wants to reach a distant goal must take small steps.
GREAT ACHIEVEMENTS WERE NOT MADE OVERNIGHT
IF YOU WANT TO ACHIEVE A GREAT BODY IT TAKES TIME
IT TAKES CONSISTENCY WITH FOOD
CONSISTENCY WITH TRAINING
DAY IN DAY OUT
WEEK AFTER WEEK
MONTH AFTER MONTH
YEAR AFTER YEAR
theres no easy way
theres no quick fix
theres no drugs no surgery
theres only the relentlessness and monotony of repeating the same things over and over again
TRAINING, EATING, SLEEPING REPEAT
TRAINING, EATING, SLEEPING REPEAT...
until you have achieved your goal
and then guess what?
if you wanna keep it then you gotta keep doing it
TRAINING, EATING, SLEEPING
and its those who just accept the fact that in order to get what you want
you have to do these things CONSISTENTLY LONG ENOUGH TO ACHIEVE YOUR GOAL
and you have to keep doing them to maintain your goal
those are the ones who have accepted that this is not something you just achieve overnight
and its something that you have to just accept as your lifestyle
it's what you do its' who you are now and forever
i love these BEFORE AND AFTER PIX OF 2 OF THE TOP FIGURE GIRLS IN THE WORLD

And if men thwart you take no heed.
If men hate you have no care.

Hope your hope and pray your prayer

You'll be damned if you do and damned if you don't.

Love is patient, love is kind.
It does not envy, it does not boast,
it is not proud.
It is not rude, it is not self-seeking,
it is not easily angered,
it keeps no record of wrongs.
Love does not delight in evil
but rejoices with the truth.
It always protects, always trusts,
always hopes, always perseveres.
The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new lands
but seeing with new eyes.

Defining yourself,
as opposed to being defined by others,
is one of the most difficult challenges you face
Don't listen to those who say, "It's not done that way."
Maybe it's not, but maybe you will.
Don't listen to those who say, "You're taking too big a chance."
Michelangelo would have painted the Sistine floor, and it would surely be rubbed out by today.
Most importantly, don't listen when the little voice of fear inside of you rears its ugly head and says,
"They're all smarter than you out there.
They're more talented, they're taller, blonder, prettier, luckier and have connections…"
I firmly believe that if you follow a path that interests you,
not to the exclusion of love, sensitivity, and cooperation with others,
but with the strength of conviction that you can move others by your own efforts,
and do not make success or failure the criteria by which you live,
the chances are you'll be a person worthy of your own respect.
TO THINE OWN SELF BE TRUE
BE YOURSELF
AND DON'T LET ANYONE TELL YOU OTHERWISE !!!!!!
