"There is nothing so easy but that it becomes difficult when you do it reluctantly"
- Pythagoras
About this Quote
This quote by Pythagoras is a reminder that even the easiest of tasks can become challenging if we do not approach them with enthusiasm. It is a suggestion that when we are not inspired to do something, it can be hard to discover the energy and focus to finish it. This is especially true when it concerns tasks that need a great deal of effort or commitment. Even if the job is fairly simple, if we are not motivated to do it, it can end up being a difficulty. This quote is a tip to remain determined and to approach jobs with interest, as this will make them easier to finish. It is also a tip that even the most ordinary tasks can be enjoyable if we approach them with the right mindset.
"While civilization has been improving our houses, it has not equally improved the men who are to inhabit them. It has created palaces, but it was not so easy to create noblemen and kings"
