Stop doing What is Easy

If
you do what is easy your life will be hard, if you do what is hard your life
will be easy. – Unknown

Times have changed, and each and everyday things are
being made easy. Technology is fastly eliminating human effort, new machines
are being introduced and so are our lives changing too. Looking at the times
our fathers grew up and the times our generation is growing up in things are
different. Our fathers grew up being told hard work is the only way to succeed,
and look at the lives they have created for the young generation each day is
easy as we go by. But to create this type of life we live in there were things
that were done by our fathers that contributed to their success that is doing
what is easy.

Think of it today if our fathers did not sacrifice,
adapt to change, stay consistent in action course, committed to their visions,
get out of their comfort-zones would all the inventions present today be a
reality. Henry Ford once said, “success is an attitude, if you believe you can,
you can and if you believe you cannot, you cannot” Henry Ford is the man behind
the creator of Ford and the V8 engine. Henry Ford was told by his engineers
that the V8 was going to be impossible but did he opt to listen to those people
or he stood for his vision. He opted to follow his dream, jump out of his
comfort-zone, stay committed to his dream till it was a reality he did not do
what was easy that is giving up, listen to demotivating comments, lose hope,
stopped acting. He continued dreaming, pursuing and opted to do what was hard
at that time so that his dream became a reality.

Doing opt to do what is termed hard by others so
that the next years of your life become simple. Today is the moment you have to
stay committed to your dream. Today is the chance to stand for what you believe
in, today is the day you need to get out of your comfort-zone because you can
achieve more than you are doing if you step out of your comfort-zone. Stop
hiding and not nurturing your talent, stop those bad habits for they have a
long-term effect on your life. Stop sowing seeds of bad deeds for in the near
future they will always reveal themselves and opt to do what is hard.

Start staying committed to your daily routine, it’s
not easy but has great results in the future, stay consistent in action, keep
believing in your dream, goals, yourself and others, do not be comfortable with
stagnancy, living in poverty get up and create the life you want, start
packaging yourself in order to fight poverty, you have ideas, talents,
abilities within you that can eliminate poverty if you do not give up on them.
“God
is capable of raising the dead, but God will never raise a person comfortably
sleeping in their bed.” Are the words of speaker Arthur Marara. God
will bless were he sees effort is being made. He will not bless the man who
will keep hiding and running away from their success and will not get out of their
comfort zones.

You have the power to create the greatness you
constantly see in your mind and you envision but to bring it to reality step
out of your comfort zone and stop doing the easy things and get geared to face
what is hard. For what is hard has a tendency of yield results of an easy life.
