Build Things Before You Need Them
Even when life is good and things are running smoothly, eventually there will come a time when you will face adversity. We all know this deep down, even if it's not fun to think about. But it's true nonetheless.
Typically you don’t chop wood because you need it today. You chop wood today so you have it when you need a fire tomorrow. It'd be wise to make sure you have wood for the fire. It'd be wise to do the work today to prepare yourself so when adversity hits, you can overcome.
In short, it's wise to build things before you need them.
It's wise to build strength before you need it.
It's wise to build an emergency fund before you need it.
It's wise to build necessary knowledge before you need it.
Push yourself to ensure you're ready for whatever life throws your way. It's okay to let internal pressure drive you today so you can handle external pressure tomorrow. Allow yourself to develop into a formidable, ready-for-whatever type of champion. Fall in love with the endless nature of things and life will oddly seem to get a bit easier, relatively more comfortable, and a lot more enjoyable.
Build, build, build.
Your future self will be grateful.
