Thought of the Day

"The harder you work for something, the greater you'll feel when you achieve it" means that when you put in a lot of effort, time, and dedication to reach a goal, the success feels more meaningful and satisfying. Hard work makes you value the achievement more because you know how much you sacrificed and struggled to get there.
