Favorite Quotes From Nikki Phillippi:
" A lot of times when we set goals, we set goals that aren't always feasible, then we fall off the bandwagon and we don't do it at all. So building a wall one brick at a time, and actually completing the wall is so much better than trying to build a wall in a day and then giving up and never building the wall at all."
"People that are really successful in life, they say are people that take baby steps to move things forward everyday. Not people that set goals so high for themselves that they are never going to achieve it and then they feel like a failure."
The book that inspired her, that I am going to read as well is: The Slight Edge
