American Success, Is Not For The Lazy.

  My daughter,  started back to school today. She enjoys going to school but getting her up and out of bed in the morning sometimes well, that's a different story. When she finally makes it out the door for school I remind her to do her best in school and to remember to work hard and avoid the temptation of laziness.She does very well in school and I want it to stay that way after all success does not come to the lazy.
  The truth is,  it  will always be easier to be lazy thus, it will always be harder generally, to work for success, those who achieve success however will tell you it is well worth the effort.I fear that there  are those in this country who want success and all the privileges that come with it yet, they would  would demand that it  be handed to them on a silver platter with no effort on their part. I know there  are some who may be born into  a wealthy family but that doesn't necessarily mean they grew up to be lazy Mitt Romney and  Donald Trump,  are good examples of those who chose  not just to bask in the success of their parents.The fact is if  you want to experience success in this country your going to have to work for it. Despite what Obama, may say no one can do that for you. your going  to have to build success for yourself. Many small businesses across this nation owe their success to their own hard work.I have noticed many of them are letting Obama,  know that they did build their  own business and thus, they have earned their success. America,  is the land of the free but everything we have here in America, is not free some working American  some where paid for it. The first  rule in basic economics is there is no such thing as a free lunch.I know there will always be those who cannot work and for those folks Americans,  have always been more than willing to help them.but there will also be those who prefer an easy hand out as opposed to a chance to work for a hand up.Those who have this philosophy will never experience real satisfying success nor should they.
  Christians,  understand the importance of having a work ethic. Provers 6:6 says,"Go to the ant thou sluggard consider her ways and be wise." This country,  was not established by following the philosophy of the lazy. I found these words from Samuel Adams,  to be quite enlightening they are as follows;"If ye love wealth greater than liberty, the tranquility of servitude greater than the animating contest for freedom, go home from us in peace.We seek not your counsel nor your arms. Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen." Some how, I just don't think Samuel Adams,  thought very much of those who chose  a simple existence as long as it took no effort yet, I am afraid there are many in America,  today,  that even if they could work for a better life they are too lazy to put put in the effort that is required. Those who feel this way need only to reelect Obama,  and he'll be happy to see to it that government will do everything for you, all it will cost you is your personal freedom and they ability  to think for yourself and thus shape your own destiny personally, I think that price is too high. As always, my friends these thoughts remain, just, some words to think on.
