Motivation

This page is the place where I'm collecting and storing all of the Marine Corps images, stories, web links, and humor that have helped to keep me focused on my goal. I guess that's why I call it the Motivation Page. I hope you like it as much as I do...


QUOTES, HUMOR, & STORIES

SELF-MOTIVATION

"Sweat dries, blood clots, bones heal. Suck it up. Be a Marine."

I love this quote, and the image of this female recruit is my favorite because it shows a young woman who is obviously beaten down and in pain...but she's still pushing. Truly motivational - don't you think so?
