We all have different things that motivate us and push us past our limits. As you know, it is my believe that that inner strength is so much of what allows us to accomplish our goals and reach our dreams. Through the process, we become better, stronger, accomplished individuals who prove to ourselves what we are truly made of and what we are capable of achieving. It is easy to say you can do something but it isn’t until you actually make a decision and put yourself to the test, when you grow and strengthen yourself, from the inside out.
This weekend was a motivating and inspiring weekend as I witnessed my husband run a 36.4 Mile Trail Run! As we strive to live this healthy lifestyle, day in and day out, it is important to have those around us that are continually pushing us to be better and leading by example, teaching life long lessons along the way. It is important to have those around you that you support and that support you in your goals, visions and dreams. Having the right support system allows you to make those dreams a reality!
Today I want to recognize those that inspire us and teach us to continually push ourselves to do things we never thought we could do. I want to get everyone thinking about their support system. My husband has been one of the best influences in my life because he really encourages me to reach my goals. Not only does he tell me I can reach my goals, but he leads by example and uses his own accomplishments to first handedly show me that anything you set your mind to is possible!
-Set your mind and you are the one to make it happen.
-We all have unlimited choices and we are the ones who have the ability to choose what choice to make.
-Don’t say you can’t do something, prove to yourself you can!
-Anything is possible if you set your mind to something and don’t allow for distractions.
-Sometimes the biggest life lessons and growth sessions are during challenges you never thought you could accomplish.
-Growing comes from pushing yourself past limits and through mental and physical barriers.
-One step at a time, one foot in front of another, you will get there if you just keep moving!
So who encourages you? What do they do to make your journey worthwhile? Have you thanked them lately for always being there?
CONGRATULATIONS ON SUCH AN AMAZING ACCOMPLISHMENT!!
