When you pass from this life you will be judged by the accomplishments that you have reached, and the contributions that you have made to mankind and the world. If something in life is worth having or doing then working hard for this result is an accomplishment in itself. If you are given everything and you never have to strive for anything then you accomplish nothing in life because you have no goals that you want to reach. Some of the most treasured things are those that you have had to work hard for and that are not easy to obtain. Working towards a difficult goal will provide self esteem and confidence, and when you finally accomplish your goals you will be a better person as a result of the struggle and hard work that you have put in.
I still remember the days I prayed for the things I have now.
Every morning you have two choices: continue to sleep with your dreams. Or wake up and chase them.
Set a goal that makes you want to jump out of bed in the morning.
Life is Like a Box of Chocolates, You Never Know What You're Going to Get.
Live as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever.
