Don’t let the fear of the time it will take to accomplish something stand in the way of your doing it.  The time will pass anyway; we might just as well put that passing time to the best possible use.  ~Earl Nightingale

I don’t know who Mr. Nightingale is, but I like this quote.  Sometimes we  feel like we are never going to get to our goal. The pounds are so slow to come off, we figure we might as well munch on chocolate.

But, what’s the hurry?  You have the rest of your life to lose the weight and gain a higher state of health.  This isn’t a temporary fix, but a new way of life.  Time is going to pass anyway.  We might as well be doing things that will make us feel better and more alive.

So put down the chocolate.  It doesn’t matter how slow your speed if you are going in the right direction.
