Why bother?

Why bother?

When contemplating the goal we may groan at the potential effort required.

Why bother do the push ups?

Why bother study?

Why bother leave the comfort zone?

The best answer I can give to this is… regret.

I like the way Jim Rohn summised it when he said:

“We must all suffer from one of two pains. The pain of discipline or the pain of regret. The difference is discipline weighs ounces and regret weighs tonnes.”

Regret is toxic and it creates bitter, angry and frustrated people.

So yeah you don’t need to bother with the small discomforts of courage and discipline but it could cost you a mountain of regret.

It’s up to you.
