About This Quote
If you want to make a change, you first must change yourself. The first step to changing your life is to recognize that you need to change. It’s tough to make those changes when you’re stuck in a bad rut. But, if one of your goals is to lose weight, for example, it takes more than making an attempt at losing weight.
It takes more than only working out at the gym once or twice. You need to seek out different places in town where you can get your exercise in. You also need to find healthy alternatives to junk food, like the gym’s restaurant, which has healthier snacks and meals.
Change begins with us.
