“Will we take the stairs?”
Heading down to breakfast from our 6th floor hotel room in Brussels yesterday, in unison we said; βWill we take the stairs?β
It was followed by βit may be the only exercise we get today!β
And so, we opened the stairwell door and walked down happily together.
βTheyβre not as steep as Dutch stairwells for sureβ¦β we quipped.
Following our breakfast, the climb back up the stairs to the 6th floor was a little tougher β thatβs for sure!
Discipline is often a choice.
The harder right is ππππππ more difficult to face than the easier wrong. (At least that’s my experience!)
Thatβs why we are frequently not good at it and many of us can struggle.
It requires discipline!
The choice is always our own.
Please note that it was not wrong to take the lift, but it certainly would have been easier.
However, taking the harder path is, well…hard!
It frequently requires us to be uncomfortable and to give a little extra.
There are always consequences to routinely taking the path of least resistance as opposed to choosing the harder right.
Even if right decisions might be formidable, we need to strive to make them.
I know that if we make a choice ππππππ it happens, it will be easier when the situation presents itself.
For example β we always take the stairs, no matter the floor!
βMay we ever choose the harder right, instead of the easier wrongβ β Thomas S. Monson
How often do you choose the easy way, rather than the hard?
