Day 68: Effort

“In all human affairs there are efforts and there are results, and the strength of the effort is the measure of the result” - James Allen

Apply some effort, some real thought, with physical, and mental activity, to achieve your goals. Don't be careless, do things half heartedly, applying little to no effort; and then expect great results. You will only disappoint yourself. It's one thing to disappoint others, but when you disappoint yourself it's much worse. It hurts, and is very frustrating.

If you have something you want to achieve, if you have something you truly desire; then putting forth 110% effort 100% of the time should be very little to ask for. Anything worth achieving, is worth working hard for. Success does not come easy.

Don't give up when you make mistakes, or things don't go exactly as you plan them to. As long as you know you put in all the effort and thought that you could, then there is nothing else you can do. Just do your best, and you can't be disappointed in yourself. The outcome may not always be what you wanted, but you'll know you did all that you could.

You can't control everything. You can't control the outcome. You can only control yourself, and your actions. What others do, and what the outcome is, are out of your control. Just do your part, and let the rest do it's part. Take each day one day at a time, waking up, and striving to do the best that you can.  Don't be disappointed by others, or the outcome. Just let things be what they are. Nothing ever goes as you expect it go to. You just have to let things be.

Don't stress about the little things. Let things be. Put 110% effort 100% of the time with everything in your life.
