“[The easy way out] has never taken anyone anywhere worth
going.”
What does that mean? What does that look like?
That means any time you have the opportunity to challenge
yourself in anything related to your pursuits, you step up and do it. You don’t
just accept the opportunity to grow and excel, you stinkin seek those
opportunities out. You don’t just do what’s required at the lowest acceptable
level of intensity, you push the envelope and force those around you to catch
up. You don’t just work hard when those who matter are watching, you lead from
the front and you don’t look back.
“Shortcut.”
“Acceptable.”
“Cheating.”
“Fine.”
“Alright.”
“Good enough.”
“Average.”
Words I never want to hear associated with anything I’m a
part of.
Have some integrity. Integrity of work, integrity of effort,
integrity of movement. Anything worth doing is worth doing to the best of your
ability. If you say you’re passionate about something, if you say you truly
care about it, then show it.
