The path that is best

Do not wish for life to be easy. Work for life to be good, thankful for every chance to make a difference.

Do not choose a path because it is easiest. Choose the path that is best, where you can create the most real value.

When things are too easy for too long you are lulled into complacency. That complacency will eat away at the meaning and substance of your life.

The things that make you feel most vibrantly alive are not the easy things. They are things that require focus, commitment, effort, sacrifice, persistence, things that matter.

What if you could be thankful that life is not easy? What if you could just do the difficult work, bear the heavy burdens, with gratitude, cheerfulness and enthusiasm?

In fact, you can. And when you do, you’ll make life even richer and more fulfilling than you can imagine.
