The Turtle Had It Right!

“Determination and consistency yield results”

Pat Rigsby - Fitness business coach


These five words have become my mantra lately. I follow Pat’s business blog and this phrase really jumped out at me about a month ago. So much so, that I wrote it down and have it next to my computer to read everyday. He was referring to business concepts, but I think this phrase could inspire us whether we are trying to improve our diet and fitness habits, starting a new business or de-cluttering our home! You name it.


I get daily motivational messages sent to my in-box from

theuniverse@tut.com. The other day I received the quote below. It has the same idea as Pat’s, but with a fun twist. I hope it makes you smile too!


“I still don't get why people are so surprised that the turtle beat the rabbit over the long run.

Consistent effort, no matter how small, sparks magic, fills sails, butters bread, turns tides, instills faith, summons friends, improves health, burns calories, creates abundance, yields clarity, builds courage, spins planets, and rewrites destinies.

No matter how small.”
