We live in a generation that only desires to look at the surface value of a situation or person, when making life changing decisions. If it requires a significant amount of effort in order discover the innate value of something or someone, impatience will overwhelm those who want something of value to manifest immediately. Just as miners have to dig through layers to obtain diamonds and gold…there will be times we may have to put in some effort to dig through layers to recognize the value of something or someone. However, since many people have the "I got to have it now!" mentality of instant gratification…they give up because they don't want to put in effort but want what appears to have value on the surface to grab their attention instantaneously. The drawback to instantaneous gratification, attraction, or surface value… is that once that decision is made, you have no idea what lies beneath the layers until it's too late, and then you realize you gave up too soon on someone or something else because you didn't put in effort to dig through the layers. We often don't see the value in something or someone, until what's beneath their layers becomes evident after seeking something better because  of the surface value. Today and always, be willing to put in some effort to seek the value beneath the layers , instead of looking for the next best thing based on the veneer surface...you don't want to live a life of regrets, forfeiting value based on impatience, seeking the next best thing ... effort is required to have something of lasting value.#Evonika❤ღ❤
