Calmly working hard

4:00

The main problem I've observed is that people try too hard to get what they don't deserve, instead of calmly working hard so that what they truly deserve naturally comes to them at the right time.

The easiest proof that people try too hard to get what they don't deserve, is that they use their credit cards too much (or buy stuff from companies that offer financing).

I have friends who obviously espouse the philosophy of "calmly working hard" and I can tell you that they are very serene. They never worry about anything. Yet the best things in life come to them: recognition, awards, money, prestige, etc.

They are the true elite.

If you know such people in your life, you are lucky indeed. By merely interacting with them, you naturally adopt their attitude and their philosophy.
