Chop wood and carry water

There is a statement I read recently  in "O" Magazine about what is needed during the period of time one is trying to build their success in life. During that period when you will do anything to make "that thing" work. That thing can be starting a new business, becoming a new husband or wife, building your career. That thing can be whatever you need it to be. One thing that is not disputed is in order to do that thing to its awesome best requires its originator to own chopping the wood and carrying the water. There is no substitute for the love, passion, hard work, dedication, sacrifice and sweat that goes into "that thing."

Later in life when a certain level of achievement and success with that thing has been realized what then? This is the period where things are moving along. No big cracks in the foundation. A bit of cushion is all around providing a sense of ease and comfort. It is easy to be complacent, to let up some, to yield to the slack that you may have let creep into "the thing."

So I am here to offer my POV on "the thing." No matter what your thing is, it is yours. It belongs to you. You birthed it. It is yours to do what you want. So if you want to keep it, may I suggest you own at every life stage chopping the wood and carrying the water.  If you don't, someone or something will step in and chop your wood and carry your water. That which belongs to you.

    I love being around people. I would rather live falling than break my spirit never trying anything hard. This blog is about trying and retrying life.
