Society likes to label people as being 'hard workers' or 'quitters', but in my experience, that's not a good thing to do. In fact, I believe anytime we label someone we are doing them a HUGE disservice, and possibly even damage.
Why do I say this? Well, because at a very young age I was labeled a 'hard worker', and for whatever reason, I believed I had to live up to that... FOREVER!
Now in some ways, it did serve me, I am pretty sure there aren't too many people who can say that during their Senior year of High School they got great grades, worked a full-time job, AND lived on their own!
Yep! That's right. Even My Sweetie admits that if he would have been in my situation his place would have been party central! LOL But not me! I was too busy being a 'hard worker' to party! So in a way, it may have been good for me - at that time.
I won't get into a long story here, but I just want to point out, that I now believe PERSISTENCE and Never Giving Up, are better ways to approach life because it is possible to be persistent without putting unnecessary stress on yourself. And the really big thing is to be applying that persistent energy towards something that MATTERS to you!
In my opinion that is the key. I worked hard for way too long at things that I did not enjoy, now I am persistent with something that I am passionate about and the rewards are FAR Greater!
If you haven't done so already, I suggest finding something you are passionate about and taking persistent action towards it, I believe you will find that it will easily and effortlessly turn into something wonderful for you!
