One day, we all are gonna be 70 yrs old (God willing). I see so many people avoid long-term pain for short-term pleasure. Hell, there are things I should have done in my early 20s that would have made things a lot easier for me now in my mid-30s.
So do the hard things. Because you CAN do the hard things. Start that business. Buy that house. Get that education.
At the end of the day, life is going to be hard regardless. You will have pain. Ask yourself, would you rather have the pain of effort or the pain of regret? Choosing to avoid the hard things isn’t going to make life easier for you. In fact, it might make things really hard for you one day.
