As I read about people who are fooled by online and other scams, I realize that many people try to circumvent hard work by easy and quick get rich ways. But except for the miniscule few, all of us will only meet success through sheer hard work.

Hard works pays and I would like to devote today to many who have expressed thoughts on the same subject:

William Feather, publisher and author, said: “The prizes go to those who meet emergencies successfully. And the way to meet emergencies is to do each daily task the best we can; to act as though the eye of opportunity were always upon us. In the hundred-yard race the winner doesn’t cross the tape line a dozen strides ahead of the field. He wins by inches. So we find it in ordinary business life. The big things that come our way are seldom the result of long thought or careful planning, but rather they are the fruit of seeds planted in the daily routine of our work.”

For Sir Theodore Martin, the nineteenth-century Scottish biographer: “Work is the true elixir of life. The busiest man is the happiest man. Excellence in any art or profession is attained only by hard and persistent work. Never believe that you are perfect. When a man imagines, even after years of striving, that he has attained perfection his decline begins.”

In the opinion of Thomas Carlyle, the Scottish essayist and historian: “The glory of a workman, still more of a master workman, that he does his work well, ought to be his most precious possession; like the honour of a soldier, dearer to him than life.”

Henry Ford, the automotive great, believed that “nobody can think straight who does not work. Idleness warps the mind. Thinking without constructive action becomes a disease.”

Author Jacob Korsaren gave this advice: “If you are poor, work. If you are burdened with seemingly unfair responsibilities, work. If you are happy, work. Idleness gives room for doubts and fear. If disappointments come, keep right on working. If sorrow overwhelms you and loved ones seem not true, work. If health is threatened, work. When faith falters and reason fails, just work. When dreams are shattered and hope seems dead, work. Work as if your life were in peril. It really is. No matter what ails you, work. Work faithfully – work with faith. Work is the greatest remedy available for both mental and physical afflictions.”

Former President Calvin Coolidge was certain that “all growth depends upon activity. There is no development physically or intellectually without effort, and effort means work. Work is not a curse; it is the prerogative of intelligence, the only means to manhood, and the measure of civilization.”

And perhaps the Greek playwright Antiphanes summed it all up when he said: “Everything yields to diligence.”

So lay off the horses or online gambling dens my friends..!
