OfflineI love a good inspiring quote!
It seems to me that most people in the DG family attach at least one quote, and often the same one, to every posting.
I think everyone should post their most inspirational quote here for those moments when we are "on the bench" (shout out to CBR) and we need our cheerleaders (each other) to give us a boost, pick us up and remind us that WINNERS PLAY HURT!! (another shout out to CBR)
I have a favorite quote (forget the author thou')
THE DEFINITION OF INSANITY is doing what you've always done and expecting a different outcome!

Watch your thoughts; They become words,
Watch your words; They become actions,
Watch your actions; They become habits,
Watch your habits; They become character,
Watch your character, it becomes your destiny.

I was just thinking of posting this quote that I recieved this morning.

Are our signatures that why they're in every posting... LOL! It's time consuming to put new quotes in every post, so we just use our signature for the quote we like the best or feel is most appropriate for what we're experiencing at that time. Some of us change it more often than others, I haven't changed mine in a while because I'm not on as frequently or for very long these days.
Psalms 118:23 "This is the LORD's doing; it is marvelous in our eyes."
Angela,
Thanks for the post and I always love the one about the definition of insanity. And it never ceases to amaze me how many people I know personally/business associates that do the same thing over and over and over and wonder why their results are the same!
That is why WE at the DG family will succeed because we are all learning to think creatively and just because one way doesn't work doesn't mean there aren't other options to make it work. That is by far the greatest thing I am seeing from everyone in these forums, everyone goes out of their way to help each other to succeed!

You've got to find your obstacles and call them out! Unsheath the sword, and do battle with whatever it is that holds you back!
You just have to do what the average person is not willing to do. cbrpower
I read this in a diet book over 30 years ago, and if you just switch some of the words around to fit your situation, it will apply:
"It wasn't so much as the food she couldn't resist - she was afraid of succeeding."
Happy thoughts! Happy thoughts!

'Genius is 1% inspiration and 99% persperation.' Albert Einstein - and he was pretty much an expert on the subject, I think.
And, I love this quote by writer Robert Green Ingersoll...
'The greatest test of courage is to bear defeat without losing heart.'
Thanks everyone for all the inspiration!
