Isn't this the truth. The sad but true truth. In a world where all issues are resolved by the end of a sixty minute television show we are all looking for instant gratification. No matter what your goals are it will always take work to succeed. This quote spoke to me on many levels. Relationships, job, coaching, parenting, blogging, exercising. Whew... That's a lot of work. I need a nap. Do you ever start to feel discouraged? I know I do. It's a little corny but I just keep telling myself that Rome was not built in a day. You have to keep doing the work. There is no magic pill.
