From people who have difficult problems, innovations are
born. From people who are bored and dissatisfied, creativity
flowers.
Great accomplishments do not come from people who wait until
conditions are perfect. Great accomplishments come from
those who are determined to begin working, right here and
right now, to make things better.
Even in the deepest adversity, life's immense value persists
and endures. From that adversity, great strength can grow.
It is when times are difficult that you most profoundly
realize how great life can be. It is when life's best
possibilities are impossibly far away that you can
comprehend their magnificent brilliance.
Life's burdens provide a unique and powerful vantage point.
In the midst of those burdens, not only can you see the way
forward, you become fully committed to making the best
possibilities real.
From the vantage point of adversity, chart your course to a
life that's richer than anything you've yet known. And feel
the power as you do

Be Focused and Committed
One great way to maintain your focus is to let go of it for a
while. To make your efforts more effective, get away from
them for a little bit.
Intense focus requires energy and enthusiasm. To replenish
that energy and enthusiasm, make it a habit to take a real
break.
Up to a certain point, the more you work the more you'll
accomplish. Eventually though, you'll reach a point of
diminishing returns.
Enjoy the challenge of working with intensity. Then spend
some time relaxing, away from all that work.
Be productive, be effective, be focused and committed. And
then regularly sit back and truly enjoy the fruits of your
efforts.
For optimum performance, keep yourself balanced. Allow your
efforts and your relaxation to positively contribute to each
other.
