    Motivational Bookmark: Make a Difference

    What you create doesn’t have to be perfect. Just enjoy it.

    I shall be telling this with a sigh
    Somewhere ages and ages hence:
    Two roads diverged in a wood,
    And I took the one less traveled by,
    And that has made all the difference.
    — Robert Frost, poet

    You cannot expect miracles to happen overnight. Be patient, and be loving, and little by little the change you seek will come. — Leon Brown

    The date for World Down Syndrome Day was selected as the 21st day of the 3rd month to signify the uniqueness of the triplication of the 21st chromosome which causes Down syndrome.

  • 10 Inspirational Images to Help You Start Walking

    10 Inspirations to Start Walking

    Here are ten wonderful images – with words – to inspired you to get out and walk every day. My wife and I walk every day for an hour. Of course, we have our dogs to help motivate us. And incredible scenery here in the mountains of Taos, New Mexico.

    Walk with a knowledge that you are never alone.

    I love to walk under the snowfall.

    For one minute, walk outside. Stand there in silence. Look up at the sky and contemplate how amazing life is.

    If you’re walking down the right path and you’re willing to keep walking, eventually you’ll make progress.

    Good things are coming down the road. Just don’t stop walking.

    Sometimes you need to step outside. Get some air and remind yourself of who you are and who you want to be.

    If you don’t feel like going for a walk or a run today, try this little trick: Put your trainers and workout clothes on as though you do feel motivated to work out. Just the act of getting dressed can act as a trigger that increases your desire to walk out of the door.

    Don’t be scared to walk alone. Don’t be scared to like it. – John Mayer

    The number one reason why people give up so fast is because they tend to look at how far still have to go, instead of how far they have gotten.

    If you can’t fly, then run. if you can’t run, then walk. If you can’t walk, then crawl. But whatever you do, you have to keep moving forward. – Martin Luther King, Jr.
