This has been my quote of the year....to finish what I've started. It is the phrase that I repeat to myself when runs get tough and this month it has been the phrase I have repeated over and over when the couch looks like a much better option than working out! It's easy to quit...especially when you have a good excuse...but the true growth comes from when you dig deep and finish what you started. Finish that training plan, you're almost at the starting line...finish your meal planning, you have just a few pounds to go....finish that last round of the circuit, you are stronger than you think!
This week...
Finish what you started!!!
I repeat that during hard runs too! Actually, Van Halen's song, "Finish What Ya Started" pops into my head and I sing it instead. Always works!
ReplyDeleteYES! and the other half here too.
ReplyDeleteif you KNOW DEEP IN YER CORE IT IS NOT FOR YOU and youre NOT stopping out of FEAR---it's ok to stop.
Love it. Results come from not how you start...but how you continue!
ReplyDeleteFinishing what you start is more important than even starting in the first place. You are doing a great job...keep it up! :)
ReplyDeleteYep I repeat this one often, especially at the end of a hard workout!
ReplyDeleteThis is a great one and one I've never actually thought of applying to running (as dumb as that sounds!). Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteStarting is easy (I've done it a thousand times!), it's the follow through that's hard ;)
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for always helping me kick the week off with a bang!
ReplyDeleteI need to let that drive me but I am one of those, oh well next time kind of people! I am a great starter, not a great finisher!
ReplyDeleteThat is a great mantra to have.
ReplyDeleteYES. im loving the whole idea of worth tied into finishing...whenever things get tough lately i just remind myself that I know I can finish because I am worth it...i am strong! and i know i can do it!
ReplyDeleteI love Monday Motivations!
