Resolve to do the things you find to be difficult. That's what confident people do. They tackle those things that are scary and they get addicted to doing it.

Know how blessed you are to be able to work this hard!

Never measure yourself against magazine covers. Every 'perfect' body you see in a bikini is a result of weeks of dieting and exercise. And airbrushing.

Treat yourself like a fat person with aches and pains and a suitcase full of excuses, and good luck-you'll stay exactly where you are. Train like an athlete and, though you may not look like one now, you will become one.

The results are the payoff. And all this sweating and hard work will be worth it.

Get comfortable being uncomfortable, that's how you break the plateau and reach the next level.

Invest your time with people who will push you to be your best. Winners love to see other people win.
