Work to be done

by Ralph Marston

There is much work remaining to be done. There will always be work to do.

It’s essential not to become arrogant or complacent in the face of success. It’s crucial not to become discouraged in the face of setbacks.

When you’re getting good results, keep going. When you’ve suffered a string of negative outcomes, keep going.

Do today’s work today, and be eager to do tomorrow’s work as tomorrow unfolds. Appreciate that by making a difference you earn the opportunity to continue making a difference.

Through the ups and downs, through excitement and boredom, continue to put one foot in front of the other. In frustration, in celebration, whether you’ve made quick progress or fallen behind, continue putting forth good effort.

That effort has power to change every situation for the better. Keep it coming.
