FRIDAY THOUGHTS
By Fabian De Marco
Life is like an all you can eat Buffet
Have you ever eaten at one of those all you can eat buffets? The main difference between eating at a normal restaurant and a buffet is that at a restaurant, you eat first and pay at the end. Whereas with a buffet, you must pay first, then your free to enjoy all the food you can handle.
I believe that success in life should be viewed in this way. We must get into the habit of first paying the price with hard work, persistence, determination and most of all passion, before we can claim the prize of success.
Many times we find ourselves standing in front of a fire-place saying “Please give me some heat first, then I promise I will put some wood in you.” Or “Please give me a pay rise, then I promise you will see results you are after.”
Remember;
You can literally have anything you are willing to work for, the only question is, what will it take to get you started?”
Totally agree. Why today do we have such an issue with you must give before you receive? Or, to put it another way, you cannot reap a harvest without first preparing the field; planting the seed; watering, fertilising and weeding along the way. Success requires working consistently hard and adjusting as required.
I could not agree more Lynne. Success is actually hard work….but the sweetest success is when you have worked hard.
