Years later I can fondly reflect on those days as being an incredible opportunity for character building. Learning to obey, and honor my fathers requests, directions and rules with a right attitude, were life changing for me.
Teaching me to work hard with a good attitude was the best thing my dad could have ever have done for me. I have taken the concept of hard work and shared it with my children, and they, too, have come to understand the character building benefits of working hard. Our children are all very hard workers who contribute to society in a positive manner. I am so glad I succeeded in passing this on and now I hope to see it passed on to yet another generation, as I influence my grandchildren.
Whatever work you do, it is absolutely vital to possess a strong work ethic. Being productive and able to produce positive results through your work is a key element of success and satisfaction in this life.
I have heard it said, you build a backbone two ways when you work hard–and it’s true. There are not many things more satisfying and character building than knowing you have put in a good day’s work. And when it’s done with the right attitude, you know you’ve become a better person.
Now go pick those rocks in your field of life. You and I both know it is going to be hard. It will be worth it though. There are so many benefits to working hard. Like dad would always say, “When you word hard, you will eat good!”
