    Motivational Bookmark - Dump Your Diet

    Don’t look back. You’re not going that way.

    Dump your diet. This isn’t about the numbers on some scale or a long list of shouldn’ts and couldn’ts. This is about you.

    It’s about feeling fit, strong, alive. Getting a glow. Turning your back on sluggishness and starting fresh. Oozing confidence.

    It’s about radiance and zest and an abundance of old-fashioned energy. It’s about ditching the doldrums.

    This is a look stunning, feel stunning, I’ve-never-felt-so-alive lifestyle.

    This is about finally becoming who you were always meant to be: gorgeous, vibrant. Unstoppable.

    You’re gonna love it.

    Motivational Bookmark: Build Strong Relationships

    Strong relationships are a core component of any fitness program. The stronger your relationships, the more support you will have to do good things for your body, mind, and soul.

    Optimism is a happiness magnet. If you stay positive, good things and good people will be drawn to you.

    Associate yourself with people of good quality, for it is better to be alone than in bad company. — Booker T. Washington, educator

    A strong relationship starts with two brave people who are ready to sacrifice anything for one another.

    Heart Attack Warning Signs

    Most heart attacks start slowly with mild pain or discomfort. Here are signs that a heart attack is happening:

    Chest Discomfort: Most heart attacks involve discomfort in the center of your chest that last more than a few minutes – or goes away and comes back. It can feel like uncomfortable pressure, squeezing, pain, or fullness.

    Upper Body Discomfort: Symptoms can include pain or discomfort in one or both arms, the back, neck, jaw, or stomach.

    Shortness of Breath: This symptom can come with or without chest discomfort.

    Other Signs: Nausea, lightheadedness, or breaking out in a cold sweat.

    If you think you are having a heart attack, call 911 right away or have someone drive you to the hospital.

    The 7 Rules of Life by Fitness Matters

    Shake things up sometimes. Do things differently. Break all the rules. Create some new rules. Have fun.

    What others think of you is none of your business. Their opinion really doesn’t matter in the larger scheme of things.

    Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don’t matter and those who matter don’t mind.

    Realize that the best things in life aren’t things.

    Life isn’t about waiting for the storm to pass. It’s about learning to dance in the rain. – Vivian Green

    Gratitude is powerful. It can transform your life. It only requires a single step.

    When a person really desires something, all the universe
    conspires to help that person to realize his dream
    . – Paulo Coelho

    Set a goal that, once achieved, will change your life forever, a goal from which there is no turning back once you start out on the path to its success. – Scott Grossberg

    The cost of being wrong is less than the cost of doing nothing. – Seth Godin

    Be thankful for what you have: You’ll end up having more. If you concentrate on what you don’t have, you will never, ever have enough. – Oprah Winfrey

    Work for a cause, not for applause.
    Life life to express, not to impress.
    Don’t strive to make your presence noticed.
    Just make your absence felt.
    – unknown

    They say if you dream about something more than once, it’s sure to come true. – Alice in Wonderland

    We can complain because rose bushes have thorns, or rejoice because thorn bushes have roses. – Abraham Lincoln

    The measure of your life will not be in what you accumulate, but in what you give away. – Wayne Dyer

    How does one become a butterfly? You must want to fly so much that you are willing to give up being a caterpillar. — Trina Paulus

    Motivational Bookmark: Setting Your Priorities

    If you were going to die soon and had only one phone call you could make, who would you call and what would you say? And why are you waiting. — Stephen Levine

    Life is too short to wake up in the morning with regrets. So love the people who treat you right and forget the ones that don’t. Believe that everything happens for a reason. If you get a chance, take it. If it changes your life, let it. Nobody said that it’d be easy. They just promised it would be worth it.

    Adding to my possessions doesn’t fill my cup. Life is good without spending a dime. – Oprah Winfrey
