Difficult Vs Easy

Difficult Vs Easy

In everything we do, we have to deal with the challenge of duality- The allure of the easy versus the necessity of the difficult.

  • It’s easy to dream big. Transforming those dreams into reality demands hard work and dedication.
  • Making promises may come naturally. Keeping them involves overcoming significant challenges.
  •  It is always easy to find faults in others. Acknowledging and correcting your own shortcomings is very difficult.
  • Setting goals is easy. Achieving them is never easy and involves navigating numerous obstacles.
  • Advising others is effortless. Following your own advice is a real struggle.

Conversely, some situations feel very challenging and highlight how we tend to follow the easy path.

  • Challenging your fears feels difficult. Sticking to the familiar feels easy.
  • Patience is hard. Giving up is very easy.
  • Forgiving others feels difficult. Holding onto a grudge comes easily.
  • Admitting to your mistakes requires courage and humility. Shifting blame onto others is often the easy path. 
  • Staying positive when things are down is never easy. Succumbing to negativity is not difficult at all.

I guess this is the paradox of our lives-Difficult Vs Easy. Pursue and do what feels difficult, and resist succumbing to anything that feels easy !!
