When a goal matters enough to a person, that person will find a way to accomplish what at first seemed impossible.

Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts.

Whenever you are working on a task, may it be your homework or your lifetime dream,
and you come to that point when your motivation drops away. There are two ways to get your motivation back on track. First you can focus on the part you already achieved. Second you can focus on you goal and imagine how great you’ll feel once you’ve reached it. But these two strategies don’t always work same as good.
So… when you haven’t even finished the first half of you task it is much more motivating to focus on the progress you already made instead of the far away goal. But when you work on and your goal and it comes in sight its better to focus on the approaching sucess. Mind this and get yourself motivated again…

You must take action now that will move you towards your goals. Develop a sense of urgency in your life.
Les Brown
It is such an awesome feeling to have something to do and to acomplish something. Just set yourself some nice goals and go for it, nothing beats the fun you’ll get out of that!

Amateurs train until they get it right. Professionals train until they never get it wrong.
Despite being sport-related this quote is important to everyone!
Think about it: When you learn for something or train for something, what is your goal? Your goal is to get it right. That is a good goal, but it does not help much because when someone asks you if you could you do it, you will hestitate and think to yourself: “Hmm I’ve done it once, but can I do it now? Here? In front of people?” BAM! You lost. Right there.
That is why pros train for never getting it wrong! That’s when you know you get it right every damn time and you can proudly say: “I can do that!”
This should be your goal!

Great things are done by a series of small things brought together.

Always keep in mind that tasks can be broken down into small pieces.
Never say there is a task too hard or too big for you! Just start making small steps towards your goal and eventually you will get there, trust me!

Okay, this is pretty rough stuff, but it is motivating like hell, enjoy!
If things went all medieval and you had to fight a guy like me over your girl, I’d ravage your ass and take her. You okay with that?
When your girl is out with her friends, she’s checkin’ me out because I’ve worked to improve my appearance and it shows. You okay with that?
You think you’re safe out here in this world? You think it’s okay to be this unfit, lazy little monger? You know you’re not safe in your job, I’m sure. Every day you go above and beyond to make sure that the cutthroat guillotine of labor supply doesn’t mutilate you into an unrecognizable, unemployed piece of shit. Why do you think it’s different with your fitness?
How’d you get to where you are? People look at you and laugh. People use you as a benchmark to change their own habits. You okay with that?
Let’s get it poppin’, kid. No relapses. It’s kill or be killed out here: it always has been. Sure, we changed the rules a little and added our own little trifling sense of justice and morality. But nothing’s really changed.
Don’t be one of these assholes making pathetic reoccurring attempts to change their lifestyle. Don’t whine about it. You’ve got self-discipline and nothing else in this life. You’ve got one try: to fail once is to fail every time. In six months, you’re either going to be a pathetic, guilt-ridden failure, or a fucking tribute to human will. Your bitch of a mother-in-law will make comments like “I can’t believe it…” Your girl will get nervous about how much you can accomplish just by setting your mind to it and start asking you to tell her she’s good enough for you. Assholes who taunted you will have nothing… nothing… to say. You did something they either simply couldn’t even begin, or tried and failed miserably.
And then when my girl is out with her friends, she’ll be checking you out, motherfucker. Let’s do this!
