You Must Put Forth Effort to Excel . . .

Too often, talented people put their heart and soul into a project and then give up at the first sign of failure. It is not that they lack talent or opportunity; it is that they lacked persistent effort. That is true for most of us, most of the time. If life is hard, then maybe we need to work harder.

Remember, when you are working toward a positive end, you need to be with people who are on the same page, with the same mindset, and not conflicting with your goals.

Do you love your life today, or do you find yourself daydreaming about the past or wistfully looking ahead to the future? If you notice that your head is anywhere but in the same room with the rest of your body, maybe it is time that you take an inventory of your life, the way it is, right now. Only by facing your life exactly the way it is right now can you take the steps to lead yourself to an even brighter tomorrow.

You determine the quality of this moment. Make it the best one possible.

  1. Thank you, Lora. You have always been the model of persistence. If anybody can be an authority on this, you can.
