Deal with life
You’ll often be tempted to take the easy way out. Do your future self a big favor, and remember that the easy way is almost never the best way.
Even when you feel like quitting, you have the strength to keep going. Even when the work is difficult and demanding, you can get it done.
Cutting corners now creates even bigger problems later. Being less than honest with yourself or others only magnifies the power of a difficult truth that will eventually be unavoidable.
Success, achievement, fulfillment, and satisfaction are never reached by avoiding life’s demands. Instead, call upon yourself to fully deal with life as it unfolds.
Much of the work of living is not fun or glamorous or convenient. Yet what makes life good at its deepest level is when you rise to the challenges as they appear.
Use your strength, deal with life, and add to its rich and magnificent substance. Make yourself always thankful for the way you’ve lived each moment.
0Ralph S. Marston
