There are no shortcuts to any place worth going.

Cheating to get ahead might get you the grade or promotion, but in the long run it really sets you back. Intelligence, creativity, hard work, and solid character–the things that propel you forward–are not fostered by taking the easy way out. You don’t earn anything by short-cutting your work. You’re only cutting your potential short. Sure you might feel relieved that a stressful task has passed, but an undeserving sense of relief doesn’t compare to the gratification of knowing that you completed your own work. If something in your life is difficult, meet it head on and earn the satisfaction of earning a job well done–with honesty and integrity.
This is yet another SparkPeople.com Healthy Reflection. Somehow today it seemed rather fitting. There are things going on in my life that make me think of this. There really are no shortcuts.
We are ramping up to a wonderful fall of riding. We hope that you are too. We will be at the Octiva Hooves for a Cure Ride. We hope to see you there! Come help us raise money for breast cancer research!
Our next ride will be the Halloween Ride. I will have to come up with something for Allyson to be this year. Should be an interesting time for all.
Well, I best get back to the job that pays the bills. Hope everyone has a woderful weekend!
