Stumbling up a hill strengthens you more than sprinting down a mountain.

About This Quote

Stumbling up a hill strengthens you more than sprinting down a mountain. It is a common but all too true saying. As young people, we should always put in the effort to keep going, not only because it might lead to a better life but also for our own physical health. When we force ourselves to do something, we often overwork ourselves and end up hurting ourselves without the desired results.

If you want to succeed at something, it is important that you know what you are getting into. Don't just go out and try to win the race by yourself thinking that running as fast as possible will get you where you want to go. You need to break down your goals into small steps and pursue them one at a time, with patience and perseverance.
