As you may have noticed, my weekly post of favorites is usually filled with randomness. Today, I’m mixing things up by actually having a direction. Fitness quotes – I’m talking motivation today, people. I spent some quality time all up in PicMonkey (the photo editor, for those who aren’t aware) to create a bunch of images with some of my favorite fitness quotes.
Hope some of you find them inspiring!
Motivation is what gets you started. Habit is what keeps you going.
Strive for progress – not perfection.
It never gets easier. You just get stronger.
Whether you think you can or you think you can’t, you’re right.
Don’t stop trying because you’ve hit a wall. Progress is progress no matter how small.
A 12-minute mile is just as far as a 6-minute mile.
Wake up with determination. Go to bed with satisfaction.
Fitness isn’t about being better than someone else. It’s about being better than the person you were yesterday.
What’s one of your favorite motivational fitness quotes?
Those are great quotes and so true!
The second one – “Strive for progress, not perfection” – is definitely one of the most important ones to remember. Don’t get yourself down by comparing yourself to others, just focus on moving forward and improving yourself.
Amen! It’s too easy to get caught up in others’ progress/results.
I remember Michael Jordan saying once “I’m not out there sweating 3 hours every day just to find out what it feels like to sweat”… as much as working out is fun, having that goal and striving for it is something I try to think of.
For sure! Having a clear goal is the best motivation.
