Everything is hard. Success is hard. Mediocrity is hard. The question isn’t whether
you’ll face difficulty – it’s which difficulty you’ll choose to embrace.
“I hate going exercising,” a young girl told me recently. “It’s hard.”
“You know what’s harder?” I replied. “living with poor health.”
Want to build a business? That’s hard.
Want to stay in a job you hate? also hard.
Want to wake up at 5 AM? Hard.
Want to feel constantly behind and rushed? Hard.
Now here is the difference, some types of ‘hard’ build you up. Others break you
down. Some difficulties lead to growth, while others lead to regret.
Save this quote of mine ‘”Bless your battles – wisdom knows which fights shape us and which break us “- Shola Amaraibi
Success isn’t about avoiding difficulty. It’s about choosing the difficulties that align with your dreams.
Choose your hard.
Choose your grind.
Choose your discipline.
Choose your discomfort.Because one way or another, life will be challenging. The only question is: Will
those challenges lead you toward your dreams or away from them?Your future self will thank you for the hard choices you make today.
