Think of something that you wanted so badly that you worked extremely hard to get it. It could be your degree: Your dream job or even your dream car. Also, think of the same effort that you put into something that you did not get.
The feeling is totally different, right? Most activities in our lives do not operate as we tend to think. Life requires adaptation – to constantly do things over-and-over again – to make it happen. That is why you feel so good when you finally get what you have been working for. And the longer and harder you have worked for it, the better the feeling.
Joy of achievement comes from the thrill of creative and continuous effort. We go wrong when we measure our rewards with the effort we exert. Effort comes before reward. It is the effort that releases the full reward. Accompany your effort with discipline and watch the rewards flow.
Put in some effort today!
