Effort

What's needed more than anything in this life is effort. This is the attitude taken on when we first start working towards a specific goal. It's something about the determination we have when we began a new adventure that excites us. The effort we put towards making that new idea a reality is often times short lived because of the inevitable obstacles that appear without warning. We get distracted, irritated and confused when the road traveled seems impossible, which could lead to an inactive effort attitude.

If you ever take the time to watch a child who's in the process of learning to walk, you will notice the effort that the child puts into each step taken without knowing the outcome after taken that step. Something deep within the child knows that they have the ability to walk and if they fall they still continue to put effort into accomplishing the ultimate goal. Sometimes we have to have that childlike mentality when it comes to fighting for the results we're looking for. Children have the tendency to be persistent in their actions and will do whatever they have to do to get what they want. I find it interesting how quickly we lose that mentality as we grow older.

Whatever you chose to fight for in life keep putting effort into what you're doing. When you have those days when it seems as if life will never be on your side, then that's when you have a chance to conjure up everything within you to find that effort attitude. Put one foot in front of the other with determination because you know one day your work will pay off.
