Hi, <\/p>\n\n
The other day, my girlfriend and I were looking at a Facebook memory where, on a walk through Brasov, we had the choice between a longer road and a shortcut, a very steep and apparently faster way. <\/p>\n\n
We chose the short and steep path. We climbed, we grabbed our hands on the vegetation around us, we slipped, we walked on all fours. Eventually we made it, but I kind of regretted not taking the long way. <\/p>\n\n
And to top it all, I arrived at almost the same time as the others who chose the long way.<\/p>\n\n
My girlfriend asked me: What makes us make decisions when we have a choice?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n In this case, although we regretted it, we made it, but we might as well not have made it and had to turn around and start the long way back.<\/p>\n\n In life, very little can be accomplished by cutting corners. As a good friend of mine, who likes more plastic parables, says, if I have to do 10 push-ups to reach a certain muscle mass, I can’t do only 2 and hope for the same result. <\/p>\n\n Most of the time the road is long and hard, but what leads us to the end, to success, is our tenacity, our determination to stay on that road no matter what obstacles we face.<\/p>\n\n Don’t look for shortcuts! <\/strong><\/p>\n\n Stay on your way!<\/p>\n\n Be tenacious!<\/p>\n\n Claudiu<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Hi, The other day, my girlfriend and I were looking at a Facebook memory where, on a walk through Brasov, we had the choice between a longer road and a shortcut, a very steep and apparently faster way.
