“Some day, in the years to come, you will be wrestling with the great temptation, or trembling under the great sorrow of your life. But the real struggle is here, now… Now it is being decided whether, in the day of your supreme sorrow or temptation, you shall miserably fail or gloriously conquer. Character cannot be made except by a steady, long continued process.”
The actions we choose today sows the seeds for the actions we’ll automatically begin taking when we face trials in the future. Don’t make exceptions for extenuating circumstances… because life is a series of extenuating circumstances.
