Easy Come, Easy Go

Nothing worth doing, nothing worth achieving, nothing worth the effort ever came easily. There is a simple reason for that. What is easily done can be easily undone.

To move steadily forward on one’s chosen path, step after step, whether or not others are watching; to meet difficulties with the steady, relentless strength of ceaselessly flowing water-such firmness of purpose, such integrity and perseverance builds a foundation that can never be compromised.
