The above quote brings life to the thought that "you get out of it what you put into it." I chose this line because it applies to everyone, in every situation. How many times have we felt satisfied with ourselves when we accomplished something? How many times have we been disappointed or dissatisfied when we chose to hold out on something?
Whenever I find myself wrapped up in something that requires a vast amount of time and energy, I make sure that I put my best effort into it, because I have been that person who decided to take a break, slack off, or half ass it. The times that I didn't put in 100% effort, I always felt like I was wanting more; like I was missing something. However, the times that I did put in 100% effort, I realized what I had been missing before. It was that assurance that I did all that I could. In other words, I was relieved and happy because I put in everything I had.
Yeah, I agree with this sentiment, Zach. It's kind of like that old sports cliche: leave it all out on the field. R. Waldo is all about living the fullest life possible, and hard work seems to be part of that.
