Going through life is easy. It may not be much fun or help you to find fulfilment, but the path of least resistance is never hard to take. But where will it lead you? Bringing out your best, developing your potential, living your best life...need effort and perseverance.
Some people start well. Projects, businesses, ideas, schemes, they brim with creative energy and enthusiasm. You know the type. All excited about the latest and greatest thing. Everything they start is going to be the answer. This time it will be different.
But when you meet them again a few weeks later, the project has ground to a halt. "Oh that," they say when you mention it. "That was all right, but wait till you hear about this!" and off they go.
After a while, their friends become a little jaded. They have heard enough about the next new thing. They want to hear that the project has grown, something solid is happening,things are progressing.
Life is not just about sowing seeds. Remember that famous parable? Scattering seeds all over the place may look very creative. But if the seed does not take root and grow, then the sower has wasted his time and is just "going" through life. It is important to take one's personal development seriously,and make choices about where and how to focus the power of attention. So practice persevering, seeing things through, completing tasks in spite of distractions. That is the way of growth, and will attract the great results you desire.
