Effort

: I'm sure you guys resort to what is easier or think it will come to you like magic. Let me tell you, I know because I used to wait for things or situations to come to me without any effort. Boy did I set myself up for disappointments for a long time. I believed that way for a long time. It took me a lifetime to change that way of thinking. I still have trouble with effort. If you want something or if you want to change something, you have to make the effort. It's not going to just, zap, and appear out of nowhere. Nobody is going to give it to you. You have to do it. The effort has to come from you.
