A Motivational Motto Monday

I love motivational mottos especially when I'm trying to lose weight.  I feel like there is so much negativity out there in the world that it is easy to get caught up in it and easily see mainly the "bad" things.  I personally believe that this negative thinking is what contributes to many people abandoning their weight loss efforts especially when they don't feel they are losing enough weight fast enough.  Although, it also doesn't help that many people usually have super high or even unrealistic expectations to start off with when it comes to their weight loss goals or efforts.  
Since deciding to start trying to lose the weight that I gained last year, my progress has been slower than I would have liked it to be despite making positive lifestyle changes.  This means I've had my share of disappointments and discouragements over the last few months, but I still try to remain positive.  Trying to stay positive and optimistic is why I like trying to keep motivational mottos around me.  I feel like they help to be keep me encouraged and remind me not to give up on my efforts.  I've decided that I'm going to try to post some future entries with simply mottos that I come across and find motivational and that I hope you may find inspirational as well.
