That great American philosopher Mike Tyson was once asked about whether it worried him that his opponent was training hard and seem to have developed a fight plan against him. Tyson respond with something to the effect of "Everybody has a plan until they get punched in the face"... (excerpt from BullBearTrader.com)

In other words: "YOU GOTTA ROLL WITH THE PUNCHES DUDES!"

"You never regret going for a run."  This is one of my favorites, especially when I'm trying to drag myself out of bed in the mornings.  While your bed feels so warm and cozy and the thought of running seems unpleasant, remember that at the end of a run, you never regret it - it's true!



And one of my all-time favorites below, by Theodore Roosevelt:

It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.
