Never giving up

I love some of these quotes I get from SparkPeople. They are not only good for my dieting mind but also for life in general sometimes. I hope you are inspired as well.

Be not afraid of going slowly; be afraid only of standing still.


- Chinese Proverb


Do you ever get frustrated because things are moving too slowly in your life? Many people don't realize that building a foundation for success does not happen overnight. It is a slow process in which you are constantly working and learning. After all, that foundation must remain strong, even in times of failure or crisis. This takes time! You may have to remind yourself that "failing" is only failure if you quit; otherwise it's a learning opportunity. So don't worry if your life seems to be moving in slow motion. Concentrate on building a solid foundation and learning from your back steps.
