It isn’t about choosing between hard and easy

Because people typically look at things from a very short term view point, they often think that the choice is between hard and easy. And then, people are inclined to choose easy.

But when we expand that view point, we see that the choice is between hard and hard.

For example ~ in the moment it is easier to not exercise than it is to exercise. But in the longer term view it is hard work to exercise now and it is also hard work to be overweight, out of shape, or unhealthy and weak. One of these two types of hard work has a positive return on our investment. The other does not.

This dynamic is true all over our lives ~ personal growth, doing the right thing, dietary discipline, financial discipline, making our phone calls, getting out of our comfort zone . . .

Our lives are infinitely better when we choose the hard work with the positive ROI.

Much Love,
