Hello Everyone, This is a little post i put together with all my love! coolheart

Life is a struggle. Life will through curve balls at you, it will humble you, it will attempt to break you down. And just when you think things are starting to look up, life will smack you back down with ruthless indifference.

The reason most people never achieve their dreams is because they simply give up. Life was never meant to be easy ? its a constant struggle, with extreme lows and extreme highs. Remember that the times when its most important to persevere are the times that you will be most tested.

To help you in your quest to stay strong and persevere through adversity, here are some encouraging quotes about staying strong and not giving up. These are words of some of the greatest men and women who have ever walked this little blue planet we call Earth.

If these quotes ring true, if you find yourself nodding in agreement, if you feel a tingle run down your spine as you realize that these incredible people had to stay strong and overcome just the same doubts and fears as you ? then you will know you are on the right path.

I like the quote from Lombardi, and it's not just b/c I'm from Wisconsin and I love the Green Bay Packers ...I procrastinate. I wait until the last minute to finish something unless it's super important. I think all these quotes somebody can relate to in some way. I know I can.
