STOP AND THINK – Only failure can be attained without effort. (Roadside sign)

Very little of value comes without effort. Whether it’s physical, mental, or spiritual, accomplishment requires the expending of energy—sometimes it may be in all three spheres. If it doesn’t take real physical exertion, it at least may require careful thinking or meditation. Otherwise, not much of lasting benefit will be achieved.

Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart. (Colossians 3:23)
