If you have to push yourself to do it, should you be doing it in the first place? That was a question I never dared to asked myself.

About This Quote

The fact that I found myself asking this question is a sad commentary on me. I should have known better. If you have to push yourself to do something, then it isn’t as good as it seems. When I started my business I pushed myself all through the first few years and was successful.

Then I took a break and the business began to suffer. Shortly after, I had another opportunity and made some changes and it working! The fact that I was pushing myself made me think that I should be doing it and not searching for opportunities. Today, I am happy with my life and everything is going well.
