So, another day, another chance of opportunity. The thing is, that most people look at opportunity, and don't seize it. Cause I've heard somewhere that most opportunites show up in coveralls and look like work. Success takes work. No matter who you are, and no matter what you do. To become a master carpenter, it takes work. To become a prima donna, it takes work. To become better at anything that comes along that might grab your fancy, it's going to take work. Opportunity, work and success. They all tie in together, and there is no magic formula for getting to the end faster. There are no shortcuts. There's no elevator. You must take the stairs. One step at a time. Don't forget to rest though. Take a day or two and do something else. This is crucial if you're going to make it to the end. Pace yourself. And remember, it's not going to happen overnight. All good things take time. Relationships? The really good ones, take time and work. The dream career? Takes time and work. Your dream life? It's going to take time and effort. Don't give up because it's slow or difficult right now. Put the time in, the effort for however long that might be. Two, maybe three months. Maybe that will be two to three years. When you think about it in the sense, that you'll work on yourself for two or three years (maybe even five) then compare it to the rest of your life when you'll have to do the minimum amount of work for upkeep.... Then the struggle, the work, all to make the most of that opportunity right now, doesn't seem that bad. Keep fighting for your future, your life... Yourself.
