Suck it Up Princess and Put in The Time

Is it just me or have you noticed a growing trend towards “quickies”?  The majority development programs these days seem to focus on how quick you can get something done.

The One Minute…
10 Minutes to…
The 7 Minuet…

Go ahead in fill in the blanks and you’ll find some program that fits it.

I like to sit back and observer…observer trends and their results.  We live in a world of “cause and effect” and I can’t help but question what effect these quickie solutions are having on our overall consciousness as well as how long with the results last?

In looking at Nature, the lasting results are those that take a long time to develop, i.e. an oak tree, a river, a person.  Where as the “quickness” of things in Nature tend to destroy, i.e. hurricane, tornado, tsunami’s.

So I question, are we really building up or at some level destroying?

We have become a lazy society that wants “it” and wants “it” NOW!

I propose, for those that have the courage, to suck it up princess and put in your time.  Put in the time to what ever you’re doing.  Put in the hours at the gym to get in better shape.  Take the time to read and think. Build something by hand….do SOMETHING that takes time.

You’ll find that you will not only enjoy the process but the end results will last a VERY long time.

To Your Inner Strength,
Gregg

You are your biggest supporter.
