Sunday Story…The Shortcut

Rarely is. You have to jump through a few hoops, cut a few corners, hop a line and maybe you save a few minutes, or get a semi-passable result.

Not. Worth. It.

If I do the work as prescribed, follow the plan, be intentional about the results I am seeking I will get the results I want. I will arrive in plenty of time and I will have all my marbles intact.

Shortcuts not only short circuit the results, they also create stress and upheaval as you cut through the neighbor’s yard, avoiding (you hope) his dog. It gets you there but at what price? Doing the work leads to greater satisfaction. Doing the work is priceless.

Do all the work. Don’t skip the hard parts, especially the hard parts.
