“Do what is easy, life will be hard.  Do what is hard, life will be easy.”-Unknown.

We have been posting a quote a day for one whole year now.  We do not plan to stop this practice anytime soon.  We hope that at least once, you were inspired by the quote.  Maybe it was what you needed to hear that day.  Maybe it made you want to read the whole book that the quote came, or listen to an album from an artist, or watch a movie you haven’t seen, or read more poems by an author.  Our hope for adding a quote a day, is that you can start to see the interconnectivity of life.  We want you start to see that good habits in the gym are good habits at work.  That good habits at home are good habits for the gym.  We want you to see or start to see how the little things add up, across a lifetime as well as across your daily life.

We see the connectivity across life, and what we do here in the gym should bleed over to your daily life.  We know that what you do in here is hard, and our hope is that the mental strength you gain in here can help you to face the dark times in your life.

 “Every person needs to take one day away.  A day in which one consciously separates the past from the future.  Jobs, family, employers, and friends can exist one day without any one of us, and if our egos permit us to confess, they could exist eternally in our absence.  Each person deserves a day away in which no problems are confronted, no solutions searched for.  Each of us needs to withdraw from the cares which will not withdraw from us.“-Maya Angelou.
