Winning is not always finishing first.

Sometimes winning is just finishing. Don't give up!..........EVER!!! Everyday is a battle. I woke up this morning ...feel like hell. I have to keep telling myself to just keep moving. I did do a little cardio this morning, some crunches & sit ups....but not my regular routine. I was working yesterday, moving our shop around....screwed up my wrist I injured several years ago. The pain is so intense...I am nauseated. NOT GOOD! But.......I will not let this get me down!

Most people do not succeed in life because they do not make up their minds and do not make the commitment to win. In order to win you must make a commitment and that is what hinders most success - commitment.


You've probably heard the adage that the journey is as important, or even more important, than arriving at the destination. Lifestyle changes are incredibly difficult! Every habit you change is for the better! You must be willing to do some different things and do some things differently.

I LOVE this!!!!!“Gaining yourself back by exerting great effort!”
And most times the greatest effort comes because you must overcome “you, and your self limiting beliefs” in order to order to achieve your goals.

Overcome the doubts,fears,hesitancy and thoughts of quitting, in order to achieve your goal.
In order to win in life it takes great effort. And the reason most people do not win is because they are not willing to exert enough consistent effort. Oh, but it is true that it is not easy to sustain and maintain consistent inertia through tough situations. Many people sincerely go out after a goal and really work hard for a while, and work in the right direction for a while, but they fall off. They cannot sustain the effort and therefore don’t win.
What can change this occurrence? What can help people have greater success in their personal and professional endeavors? What can help people sustain and maintain the momentum to actually have a string of winning moments?
“The difference between a successful person and others is not a lack of strength or knowledge, but rather a lack of the will to win!”
