Enterprise
is Better Than Ease
by Jim Rohn
If
we are involved in a project, how hard should we work at it?
How much time should we put in?
Our
philosophy about activity and our attitude about hard work
will affect the quality of our lives. What we decide about
the rightful ratio of labor to rest will establish a certain
work ethic. That work ethic - our attitude about the amount
of labor we are willing to commit to future fortune - will
determine how substantial or how meager that fortune turns
out to be.
Enterprise
is always better than ease. Every time we choose to do less
than we could, this error in judgment has an effect on our
self-confidence. Repeated every day, we soon find ourselves
not only doing less than we should, but also being less than
we could. The accumulative effect of this error in judgment
can be devastating.
FORTUNATELY,
IT IS EASY TO REVERSE THE PROCESS
Any
day we choose we can develop a new discipline of doing rather
than neglecting. Every time we choose action over ease or
labor over rest, we develop an increasing level of self-worth,
self-respect and self-confidence. In the final analysis, it
is how we feel about ourselves that provides the greatest
reward from any activity.
It is not what we get that makes us valuable, it is what we
become in the process of doing that brings value into our
lives. It is activity that converts human dreams into human
reality, and that conversion from idea into actuality gives
us a personal value that can come from no other source.
So
feel free to not only engage in enterprise, but also to enjoy
it to it's fullest along with all the benefits that are soon
to come!
To
Your Success,
Jim Rohn
