Effort: Idea #496


Do you look forward to difficulties? I know I don’t. However, ‘Persistence and resilience only come from having been given the chance to work through difficult problems.’ (G.Tulley) Ok, and so what does that look like in everyday life? ‘Perseverance is the hard work you do after you get tired of doing the hard work you already did.’ (N.Gingrich) That sounds like a lot of effort, and we may ask ourselves, is it really worth it? I say YES, because as we persevere, persist, and build resilience, we’ll find ourselves in the company of all the other successful people we admire.
