MOTIVATION: you can go further than you think. Just try. One more mile. Ten more minutes. Five more reps. One more sprint. Maybe two. Just try. Your body will prove your head’s self-doubt wrong. Your heart knew all along. But you have to try. You’re stronger than you think. You’re tougher than you think. You’re more resilient than you think. You will succeed. But you have to try. And keep trying. And keep trying. You will succeed. But only if you try. (via NikeFB) High-res

MOTIVATION: you can go further than you think.

Just try. One more mile. Ten more minutes. Five more reps. One more sprint. Maybe two. Just try. Your body will prove your head’s self-doubt wrong. Your heart knew all along. But you have to try. You’re stronger than you think. You’re tougher than you think. You’re more resilient than you think. You will succeed. But you have to try. And keep trying. And keep trying. You will succeed.

MOTIVATION: be your own hero. There’s the you that you’re striving for through your workouts. There’s the you that you know you’re capable of unleashing. Take action and get there! It’s there waiting for you. You know the feeling after a kickass workout. You know how you feel after keeping your fruits and veggies in check. You know your potential. Grasp it! The joy in achieving that far outweighs the frustration in doing nothing about it. Chase it! Catch it! Be your own hero!

MOTIVATION: stay positive. I mean, you can get gnarly with it and just be pissed all the time. Most of us have plenty of ammunition behind that train if we so choose. But if tough shit in life is already driving you down, why join that pity party? You might stop by every once in a while, that’s normal and to be expected. But it’s in those very worst of times when you need that positive, sun-is-shining, look-on-the-bright-side, there’s-gotta-be-a-silver-lining-in-there-somewhere kind of outlook more than ever. Cheesy never hurt nobody. Bitterness on the other hand… Stay positive. Because being negative is too easy.  High-res

MOTIVATION: goals & getting there.  We focus so much on what we’re not and what we wish we were.  Instead, focus on the journey and not so much the potential of the destination.  Focus on the everyday workouts that make you better and stronger with every rep, step and drip of sweat. Focus on the everyday choices of what we put into our bodies or how much sleep we get. It all counts. It all adds up. Our successes are in the little everyday goals. Not in one giant general big picture goal. Get specific and you’ll get there.  High-res

MOTIVATION: putting in the work.

Big goals take big work. Even small goals take big work. And you need that push, that desire, that need to succeed pushing you every day. How bad do you want it? And how hard are you willing to push? 

(Thanks to Dave B. for the video!)
