A young runner trained every day but kept losing races. One day, exhausted and ready to quit, he told his coach he couldn’t do it anymore. The coach smiled and said, “Every step you take brings you closer to the finish line—even the ones that feel like failures.

Work before play—success starts with effort.

There was once a young man who complained that life was unfair—he had little money, few friends, and endless problems. One day, he visited a wise elder and poured out his frustrations.

The elder handed him a small jar of water and asked him to walk around the village, sprinkling it on every plant he saw. Confused, he did as told. By the end of the day, the jar was empty, but the plants were thriving.

The elder smiled: “You see, even a little effort, a little care, can make life better. Instead of focusing on what you lack, be grateful for what you can give.”

From that day on, the young man started noticing the small blessings in his life—and gratitude transformed his world.

It’s easier to bleed than to sweat—stay strong, keep pushing

The value of your work is measured not just in results, but in the growth, passion, and purpose you bring to it.
