The Sign Of Struggle

Temporary failure and struggle happen in conjunction with all real success. All fake success is very easy. Think about this fact for a moment and you know I am right. Chance, gambling and ease, it does not matter how many times you are successful at these, when you lose it will feel bad, and be very good. Because you will have a real chance to win with skill. Skill, cause and effect are the family of concepts that enable achievement. It is not that seeming ease that comes with celebration that is the core of the goal, but the experience gained, win or lose.

We are as happy and joyful as we make up our minds to be. It is the same with sadness and pessimism. That is the real and genuine reality that accompanies the sign of struggle. But yet, do we give a thought to the thought that chance has nothing to do with anything dealing with our feelings and personal realities about situations. Here, in this part of the article, thoughts of Viktor Frankl and his works kind of float through my mind because happiness and sadness about situations are really only personal decisions, not anything set in stone or permanent.

For those who decide not to struggle to really win, life is a prison they cannot wait to die from and nothing more than something they invest in as a job to do for God and existence. I feel sorry for those people who push through just to "get by" instead of "get it" and really enjoy their lives. Well, for them, I say, the ultimate cheater is the person who cheats themselves.

Yes, cheating is not a short cut, as many think. It is the ultimate payment where you get off hard through not experiencing what you have cheated past in reality. Think of the experience gained if you did it honestly. Cheaters want this experience without working for it, they are making the ultimate sacrifice. Especially those cheaters which "get away with it". They are missing out just like an Adam Sandler movie called "Click". As they say, you have to really experience the whole thing for real to understand it fully. That saying may be old, but my readers, it is the honest truth. Living by "big lies" is a bubble of weakness that even a genius cannot win against. On the other hand, the honest genius is the most genuinely potent, effective and dangerous person in existence, he ultimately gets things done. For the sign of genuine struggle is progress and genuinely getting things done and not cheating.
