CHOICES:
One’s philosophy is not best expressed in words;
it is expressed in the choices one makes.
In the long run, we shape our lives and we shape ourselves.
The process never ends until we die.
And, the choices we make are ultimately our own responsibility.
MAKE THE RIGHT CHOICES FOR A WONDERFUL LIFE

Greatness can never be achieved by
the same mental attitude that doubted its possibility in the first place.
To achieve greatness,
one has to think great, act great,
hope to be great and be patient for however long the journey takes.
You gain strength, courage, and confidence by
every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face.
You must do the thing which you think you cannot do.

THE MAN IN THE ARENA
It is not the critic who counts;
not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles,
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, who comes short again and again,
because there is no effort without error and shortcoming;
but who does actually strive to do the deeds;
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 cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.
Pretty sure he was on the cover of Powerlifting USA in the early 80's.Pretty impressive bench raw.Originally Posted by fitbody

All who have accomplished great things
have had a great aim
and have fixed their gaze on a goal
that is high–one that sometimes seems impossible.
A man is but the product of his thoughts;
what he thinks,
he becomes.
Success is a state of mind.
If you want success,
start thinking of yourself as a success.
I am the master of my fate;
I am the captain of my soul.
NEW YEAR, A NEW YOU....
just do it

Achievers don’t just dream,
they courageously take plenty of actions on their dreams to ensure that they come into manifestation.
There has never been any man in the history of mankind that achieved something tangible without taking consistent actions.
Almost every single thing that is worth keeping takes time.
This is why we have to be willing and able to take actions,
and at the same time be willing to have patience.
I feel that the most important step in any major accomplishment is
setting a specific goal.
This enables you to keep your mind focused on your goal
and off the many obstacles that will arise when you’re striving to do your best.

DETERMINATION:
Nothing on earth can stop us from proclaiming our destiny in life,
unless we decide to fall into the habit of seeing so many difficulties in things,
instead of the possibilities in things.
Nothing steals one’s dream faster than one’s constant self-doubts.
No motivation can ever survive in the long-term,
if one refuses to free his or her mind from the fears of the struggles,
challenges and obstacles that lie ahead.
The beginning of strong determination starts from one’s consistent positive thoughts.
An invincible determination can accomplish almost anything
and in this lies the great distinction between great men and little men.
JUST DO IT !

Delayed Gratification Defined:
simply, it means
making a choice which
limits the ability of getting something now,
for the pleasure of being able to have something bigger or better later.
GREAT THINGS come to those who wait !
STOP PROCRASTINATING YOUR GOALS & LIFE AWAY...
this New Year make consistent choices that take you closer to,
rather than further from
YOUR GOALS !

HAPPY NEW YEAR, a new year,
a new start to become the best you ever...
The reason most people never reach their goals is
that they don’t define them,
or ever seriously consider them as believable or achievable.
Winners can tell you where they are going,
what they plan to do along the way,
and who will be sharing the adventure with them.
Goal setting is very important in life,
because without goals we would forever live in the land of imagination
with no chance of experiencing the taste of true reality.
So many things in life that are yet to be achieved are because
people haven’t bothered to set goals on them and follow their goals to the finish line.
The beginning of any success starts from setting clear effective goals.
Goals can help you approach life in a positive direction,
because so many people are full of desires,
but don’t really know how to go about fulfilling their desires.
Life without goals is truly a life without a specific direction.
Most of the great things that were achieved on earth were achieved by people who
had specific goals for themselves.

You may have a fresh start any moment you choose,
for this thing that we call ‘failure’
is not the falling down,
but the staying down.
The difference between a successful person and others
is not a lack of strength,
not a lack of knowledge,
but rather a lack of will.
