I was watching a motivational YouTube video today, which I like to do on occasion, which was pretty…well… motivating. But it was the message at the end that I found to be most interesting. “If you do what’s easy…”
I do find some motivational videos to be very inspiring. Especially if they contain messages from the more successful …let’s call them celebrities… that have been key to their success.
This video was about Denzel Washington who I greatly respect and admire, so he had some great messages to share.
But it was the typed message at the end that I absolutely loved.
“If you do what’s easy, life will be hard.
If you do what’s hard, life will be easy.”
This is such an accurate statement even though it is a generalisation.
Doing what is easy is what the masses tend to do. After spending a day being told what to do by their boss at work, they come home, sit on the couch and watch TV. Or get on their mobile and check out social media.
For these people, life is pretty hard. They are generally not very successful, do not have many of life’s luxuries, and live in a world of scarcity.
I hope you do not fall into this category. I am not to judge but I would believe that you are reading this because you want to improve your life and create success and a wonderful lifestyle for yourself and your family.
If you study the successful people in life, they have worked hard to get there. There can be no denying that.
Sometimes you hear stories about how someone suddenly became successful, but you do not hear about the years of hard work prior where they were trying and failing.
Now, I am not saying that it has to be a struggle to become successful. It can be simple, but it is never easy.
Often the hardest part is the mindset. Removing the negative programming that we have had since birth from parents, family and society can be extremely challenging.
All the time we have a negative view about success or money, we will never be able to create it and sustain it.
This is why the vast majority of people stick to the easy path. You can understand why.
But we want success, we want happiness, we want fulfilment.
For that we need to step out of our comfort zone and tackle our fears head on.
Whatever the barrier might be, we need to identify it and then face it and overcome it.
Determination, resilience and persistence will win the day. 👏
Dream big and take action 👍
