Quotes to Boost your Motivation!

Weight loss is most definitely a journey.

It would be naïve to think that throughout this journey, there will not be days that challenge you. The daily stresses of life and work can often mean that we lose focus and fall into old habits or patterns of behaviour – the same ones that lead us down the road of poor choices, loss of energy and motivation and ultimately the decline of our health and wellbeing.

However, every setback is a set up for a come back ! The power of being supported by your coaches and the extended Geelong Boxing Club crew is that through the power of accountability, collective energy and positivity you will pull yourself out of these challenging moments ! Even if you veer off course from time to time – jumping back in on a group session or organising personal training with one of our coaches will support you in getting back on track quickly!

To help keep you motivated in trying times, our coaches have collected some powerful, motivational quotes that you can read over and reflect on. These quotes can be useful when you need to be supported in keeping your mind focused and in a positive place – moving forward towards your goals!

“Don’t let what you cannot do interfere with what you can do.” —John R. Wooden
