Hard work spotlights the character of people:
some turn up their sleeves,
some turn up their noses,
and some don’t turn up at all.
THIS REMINDS OF OF CONTEST PREP..... lol
A successful man is one who can lay a firm foundation
with the bricks that others throw at him.
Yesterday is a cancelled check;
Tomorrow is a promissory note;
Today is the only cash you have, so spend it wisely.

To let go isn't to forget, not to think about, or ignore.
It doesn't leave feelings of anger, jealousy, or regret.
Letting go isn't about winning or losing.
It's not about pride and it's not about how you appear,
and it's not obsessing or dwelling on the past.
Letting go isn't blocking memories or thinking sad thoughts,
and it doesn't leave emptiness, hurt, or sadness.
It's not about giving in or giving up.
Letting go isn't about loss and it's not about defeat.
To let go is to cherish the memories, but to overcome and move on.
It is having an open mind and confidence in the future.
Letting go is learning and experiencing and growing.
To let go is to be thankful for the experiences that made you laugh,
made you cry, and made you grow.
It's about all that you have, all that you had, and all that you will soon gain.
Letting go is having the courage to accept change,
and the strength to keep moving.
Letting go is growing up.
It is realizing that the heart can sometimes be the most potent remedy.
To let go is to open a door,
and to clear a path and set yourself free.
The Tao Te Ching says,
When I let go of what I am, I become what I might be.
When I let go of what I have, I receive what I need.
Have you ever struggled to find work or love,
only to find them after you have given up?
This is the paradox of letting go.
Let go, in order to achieve.
Letting go is God's law.

Goals = Dreams + Action.
“You've gotta dance like there's nobody watching,
Love like you'll never be hurt,
Sing like there's nobody listening,
And live like it's heaven on earth.”
“To live is the rarest thing in the world.
Most people exist, that is all.”
LIVE LIFE TO ITS FULLEST !

"If you envy successful people, you create a negative force field of attraction that repels you from ever doing the things that you need to do to be successful. If you admire successful people, you create a positive force field of attraction that draws you toward becoming more and more like the kinds of people that you want to be like."
"The victory of success is half won when
one gains the habit of setting goals and achieving them.
Even the most tedious chore will become endurable as
you parade through each day convinced that every task,
no matter how menial or boring, brings you closer to fulfilling your dreams."

Success depends on getting good at saying no
without feeling guilty.
You cannot get ahead with your own goals if
you are always saying yes to someone else
You can only get ahead with your desired lifestyle
if you are focused on the things that will produce that lifestyle.
ie: if you wanna be lean and you are always focused on....
foods that make you fat, wishing, wanting them....
then guess what ?
you will get what you are focused on !
To succeed in anything,
you must have the will and tenacity to finish the job.

"A man can be as great as he wants to be.
If you believe in yourself and have the courage, the determination, the dedication,
the competitive drive
and if you are willing to sacrifice the little things in life
and pay the price for the things that are worthwhile,
it can be done."
"Champions aren't made in gyms.
Champions are made from something they have deep inside them
a desire, a dream, a vision.
They have to have last-minute stamina,
they have to be a little faster,
they have to have the skill and the will.
But the will must be stronger than the skill."

Your intensity and determination to succeed lies first
within your mind and then within your heart.
Utilize both you mind and body to
attain your goals and you will be triumphant.
"Our attitudes control our lives.
Attitudes are a secret power working 24 hours a day,
for good or bad.
It is of paramount importance that we know how to
harness and control this great force."

Dean Brandt slams most if not all Trainers who are BODYBUILDERS & FIGURE ATHLETES….
“BodyByBrandt Contest Prep: we specialize in the most popular categories: Bikini + Physique! If your training with a bodybuilder,or Figure athlete odds are your following the wrong style of training + diet. We also offer Vegan or vegitarian meal plans, all plans are custom made for each person based on their body type, goals and lifestyle. **You do not have to take any banned supplements to compete in bikini or mens physique*** if your trainer is pushing this on you , then find another trainer!!! I have experience training natural athletes for shows and non-natural, and this is a completely different process. Look for experience and proven results!”
Some of my replies:
Dawn Alison seriously are you fucking kiddin me dean really???
Dawn Alison how to lose friends and alienate people !!!!!!!

Being considerate of others
will take you further in life than any college degree.
No kind action ever stops with itself.
One kind action leads to another.
Good example is followed.
A single act of kindness throws out roots in all directions,
and the roots spring up and make new trees.
The greatest work that kindness does to others is
that it makes them kind themselves.

To make our way,
we must have firm resolve, persistence, tenacity.
We must gear ourselves to work hard all the way.
We can never let up
Nobody who ever gave his best regretted it.
Success is not measured by what a man accomplishes,
but by the opposition he has encountered
and the courage with which he has maintained the struggle
against overwhelming odds.
