Hardship Quotes

Quotes About Hardship

Adversity is like a strong wind. I don't mean just that it holds us back from places we might otherwise go. It also tears away from us all but the things that cannot be torn, so that afterward we see ourselves as we really are, and not merely as we might like to be. ― Arthur Golden, Memoirs of a Geisha
And once the storm is over, you won’t remember how you made it through, how you managed to survive. You won’t even be sure, whether the storm is really over. But one thing is certain. When you come out of the storm, you won’t be the same person who walked in. That’s what this storm’s all about. ― Haruki Murakami
God does not lead His children around hardship, but leads them straight through hardship. But He leads! And amidst the hardship, He is nearer to them than ever before. --Otto Dibelius
I have felt pain, I have endured hardship, I have suffered loss of loved ones and I have memories I want to forget. However, these things have made me stronger and today I face the world with a smile, because I know things will always get better and those who love me will always be there for me.
I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work. ― Thomas A. Edison
I've missed more than 9,000 shots in my career. I've lost almost 300 games. 26 times, I've been trusted to take the game-winning shot and missed. I've failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed. – Michael Jordan
No obstacles fell in his way that seemed to him insurmountable. He might be defeated, as he sometimes was, but he shrank from no hardship through impatience, he fled from no danger through cowardice. -- J. P. Morgan writing about Napoleon Bonaparte
Sometimes adversity is what you need to face in order to become successful. - Zig Ziglar
The brick walls are there for a reason. The brick walls are not there to keep us out. The brick walls are there to give us a chance to show how badly we want something. Because the brick walls are there to stop the people who don’t want it badly enough. They’re there to stop the other people. – Randy Pausch
The greater the obstacle, the more glory in overcoming it. – Moliere
The most beautiful people I've known are those who have known trials, have known struggles, have known loss, and have found their way out of the depths. ― Elisabeth Kübler-Ross

You must make a decision that you are going to move on. It won’t happen automatically. You will have to rise up and say, ‘I don’t care how hard this is, I don’t care how disappointed I am, I’m not going to let this get the best of me. I’m moving on with my life. – Joel Osteen
No one would have crossed the ocean if he could have gotten off the ship in the storm. --CHARLES KETTERING
Hard times create strong men. Strong men create good times. Good times create weak men. And, weak men create hard times. --G. MICHAEL HOPF

Life is a storm, my young friend. You will bask in the sunlight one moment, be shattered on the rocks the next. What makes you a man is what you do when that storm comes. --ALEXANDRE DUMAS
A happy life consists not in the absence, but in the mastery of hardships. --HELEN KELLER

Romans 5:3 And not only this, but [with joy] let us exult in our sufferings and rejoice in our hardships, knowing that hardship (distress, pressure, trouble) produces patient endurance;

2 Timothy 1:8 Be not ashamed therefore of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me his prisoner: but suffer hardship with the gospel according to the power of God;

2 Timothy 4:5 But as for you, be serious about everything, endure hardship, do the work of an evangelist, fulfill your ministry.

James 1:2-4 ESV Count it all joy, my brothers, when you meet trials of various kinds, for you know that the testing of your faith produces steadfastness. And let steadfastness have its full effect, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing.

John 15:18-20 ESV “If the world hates you, know that it has hated me before it hated you. If you were of the world, the world would love you as its own; but because you are not of the world, but I chose you out of the world, therefore the world hates you. Remember the word that I said to you: ‘A servant is not greater than his master.’ If they persecuted me, they will also persecute you. If they kept my word, they will also keep yours.

Romans 8:35-39 ESV Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or danger, or sword? As it is written, “For your sake we are being killed all the day long; we are regarded as sheep to be slaughtered.” No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. For I am sure that neither death nor life, nor angels nor rulers, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers, nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.

1 Peter 4:13 ESV But rejoice insofar as you share Christ's sufferings, that you may also rejoice and be glad when his glory is revealed.

2 Timothy 2:3 ESV Share in suffering as a good soldier of Christ Jesus.

Romans 8:28 ESV And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose.

Romans 15:4 ESV For whatever was written in former days was written for our instruction, that through endurance and through the encouragement of the Scriptures we might have hope.

2 Timothy 3:12 ESV Indeed, all who desire to live a godly life in Christ Jesus will be persecuted,

Jonah 1:4 Then the Lord sent a great wind on the sea, and such a violent storm arose that the ship threatened to break up. 5 All the sailors were afraid and each cried out to his own god. And they threw the cargo into the sea to lighten the ship.

Balance Quotes

Quotes About Balance

Be prepared to ride the cycles and trends of life; success is never permanent, and failure is never final. -- Brian Tracy
I will love the light for it shows me the way, yet I will endure the darkness for it shows me the stars. -- Og Mandino
If we had no winter, the spring would not be so pleasant: if we did not sometimes taste of adversity, prosperity would not be so welcome. -- Anne Bradstreet
Life is like riding a bicycle. To keep your balance, you must keep moving. --ALBERT EINSTEIN
Life is part positive and part negative. Suppose you went to hear a symphony orchestra and all they played were the little, happy, high notes? Would you leave soon? Let me hear the rumble of the bass, the crash of the cymbals, and the minor keys. -- Jim Rohn
Live a balanced life-learn some and think some and draw and paint and sing and dance and play and work every day some. -- Robert Fulghum
The seasons do not push one another; neither do clouds race the wind across the sky. All things happen in their own good time. -- Dan Millman
Through the years I have found it wonderful to acquire, but it is also wonderful to divest. It's rather like exhaling. -- Helen Hayes
To acquire balance means to achieve that happy medium between the minimum and the maximum that represents your optimum. The minimum is the least you can get by with. The maximum is the most you're capable of. The optimum is the amount or degree of anything that is most favorable toward the ends you desire. -- Nido Qubein
We can have it all, but not at the same time. -- Patricia Fripp
You have to decide what your highest priorities are and have the courage -- pleasantly, smilingly, non-apologetically -- to say 'no' to other things. And the way you do that is by having a bigger 'yes' burning inside. The enemy of the 'best' is often the 'good.' -- Stephen Covey
You're never as good as everyone tells you when you win, and you're never as bad as they say when you lose. -- Lou Holtz

Interesting Facts about Balance

https://youtu.be/MaHTjGW6gTI

The Seasons of Life = If you want to get the most out of life, maximize the seasons. Some moments might be full of victories and other times you're coasting through the days. It's all about balance!

https://youtu.be/mpIjZM-7J3Q

If you’re looking for daily balance, you will never find it. Life has a way of surprising you on any given day, at any given moment, and it can throw you off track. If you think of the bigger picture and view this moment as a part of a season rather than just a moment on its’ own, you can better determine who or what needs your focus and attention now—your family, your business, your relationships.

Love is a Leadership Principle

Lead With Love = So many people don’t know what love is. In Greek, there are words for 4 different types of love—romantic love, brotherly love, and the love between a parent and child. The 4th word for love—the type that represents a leadership principle—is Agape. This type of love is a verb, how you behave, not how you feel. Love is patient, kind, trusting, truthful, forgiving, unselfish, and it is dedicated to love in all circumstances. If you want to be a better servant leader, lead with love.
