Hardwork always pay off.
If you need a reminder of that, this is the blog post for you. Here are just a few examples of how hard work can pay off in our everyday lives:
- If you've ever tried to lose weight, you've probably been exercising and eating better. Those things take effort, and it's worth it when the number on your scale starts getting smaller!
- If have a desk job and one day decided to try walking your lunch break instead of taking the bus, after three months your morning jog might not feel so daunting anymore. Seeing results from our own hard work can motivate us to keep going!
- You might be having trouble with a project at school or with just doing well on an exam next week. Deep down, you know if you try your best that you'll do your best.
- You might be going through some tough times right now, or working towards a goal that's quite far off in the future. It's easy for us to forget about all the work we've already done, but it's important when we hit a bump in the road to not just think about what we're dealing with now.
- There are lots of different careers and hobbies out there; if you give hard work something to do, chances are it'll wind up paying off!
- Even just walking around those halls at school can help keep us active and healthy while making us feel good about ourselves.
- The point is, if you try hard and work hard, it'll pay off in so many ways.
Walking around a hall at school helps keep us active and healthy!
- Here's a fun fact: On average, we spend about two hours more of our day working than we spend sleeping. That's a lot of time to take for granted. We only have 24 hours each day, so if you're doing something you love, then do it! But if you're struggling to find time to work on a passion project or just to get something done, remember that you have power over how you spend your time. Don't fall into the trap of blaming others for your struggles with motivation. It's entirely up to us to make sure we're living the life we want to live. If we want something, there's no reason that we can't see our hard work pay off!
- If a task is too big and intimidating, it's easy to get overwhelmed by how long it might take until you see results. Sometimes it's easier to break down that task into smaller pieces, and give ourselves a deadline for each. Study up on where to find the right resources, and address your anxiety by thinking about all the bigger goals you'll be working towards.
- The journey is what matters, not the destination. Even if you haven't reached your goal yet, you got this far! That's a start! Don't lose sight of what you're working towards and don't get discouraged if it takes some time to realize your dream. All in all, hard work always pays off!
- "If you do the things you dreamed about when you were a little kid, you'll be a little kid forever."
- "If everything seems under control, you're not going fast enough." - Mario Andretti
- "Failure is an option: Research shows that ninety-five percent of all projects fail and that forty percent of those failures can be attributed to poor project management." - P.C. Höffnert
- From the archives: You'll never regret working towards something you truly believe in, or trying something new. You just might not know how to get through that first difficult stage. Whatever it is, take it one day at a time and don't underestimate yourself.
- Just like the saying goes, Rome wasn't built in a day. Keep trying, even if your first attempt isn't a success: you'll learn from your mistakes, prepare for the next time around, and be that much closer to accomplishing your goal.
- If you're ever having trouble making an important decision and feel paralyzed by your options, that's when it's most important to be honest with yourself and talk through the various consequences of each choice with someone you trust. Your best bet is to take a step back and start making sure you're going somewhere; working hard is one of the best ways to achieve that. Don't allow others to distract you from focusing on what you really want to do. Keep your goals in mind, even when times are tough, and remember to put yourself first!
- In our everyday lives, we make choices every single day about how we spend our time. If we have something on our minds, it can be easy for us to deviate from what's truly important. Even if it seems like no one else understands or notices your hard work and dedication, remember that not everyone has the same goals or values as you do. Be kind to yourself and trust that you're doing the right things for yourself.
- Think about it: if someone had told you five years ago that you'd be on a plane today, riding around in a car to nowhere in particular, would you have guessed it'd be pretty fun? When we're down or out of ideas on a project, we just need to step back and think about the bigger picture. It's easy to get caught up in all sorts of little distractions and let our dreams slip away, but try not to lose sight of your goals! There will be a time when things start going your way and you'll feel like a better version of yourself. You'll start to wonder why you didn't know how lucky you were.
- If you're struggling to find motivation, try looking back at the reasons and inspirations that got you here in the first place. There's no limit on how far you can go!
- If you're having trouble coming up with an idea for a project idea, consider working on something smaller, more manageable and doable first. It'll help your brain get used to focusing on something other than writing and focusing can be very useful for when it comes to brainstorming for your big ideas later on. It's easier to write something when you already have something in mind to work with.
- Don't forget why you're doing what you're doing, and try not to get discouraged if you're having a hard time getting things done. Remember that if you work hard enough, everything else will fall into place!

- Big (or any) goals are never small; they just look that way. It takes a lot of hard work to turn something small into something big. Sometimes it seems like you're working towards nothing at all, but the truth is you're making progress every day regardless of how fast or slow you go! Don't lose sight of your goal and don't let what other people say get in the way of your own confidence! Even if it seems impossible, trust in yourself and keep looking forward with hope and enthusiasm.
