Efforts - not avoiding them but even seeking them

Those who try to get others to serve their interests will certainly gain a great deal, but they will lose even more. In circumstances where it would be up to them to make the effort to obtain what they want, if they do not make that effort, physically or psychically, they risk infirmity and become increasingly vulnerable. When you do not exercise your faculties you lose them, whereas those who adopt the philosophy of individual effort learn to tame their will, and this strengthens them. Every day they discover possibilities in themselves of which they were unaware. They experience a joy that nothing and no one can take from them. Believe me, the philosophy of effort shows us that in effort there is joy to be found. And so you should not offload onto others what you yourself ought to do, and if possible you should do it without their help. I will go further and say that you should not wait for effort to be imposed on you from outside. You should impose it on yourself.
