Life ain’t easy, but it is simple.

Dear anyone reading this blogpost,

What I am about to tell you right now, you may or may not like it. It just depends on how you look at it:

Life ain’t easy, but it is simple.

What I mean by this statement is that while life may not be easy to get through, it is simple when you genuinely and diligently use the right principles. For example,  most of us at some point in our lives have heard the phrase “seedtime and harvest” or ” you reap what you sow”. These phrases are true in that whatever you sow, or invest your time in, you eventually end up reaping, or manifesting that thing in your life. The same way you plant apple seeds in your backyard and get apples is the same way you plant “seeds” of positive thoughts, kindness, and hard work in your life to receive a harvest of peace, grace, and prosperity. Seedtime and harvest is a principle.

What principles do is simplify life, so life doesn’t seem as complicated as we might think. You can find these principles in the Bible or you can hear it in inspirational messages from personal development coaches and motivational speakers, like Dr. Eric Thomas, John Maxwell, and Tony Robbins. Another principle is this: Treat others how you would like to be treated. You could even say that this is the number one principle of life that can direct you in nearly any situation or decision you encounter. Why do I say this? Well, assuming you want others to treat you well, with respect, dignity, and so on, I am sure that you would not like to be treated like you are worthless.

Therefore, living by this principle means that in the same way you would like to be shown kindness, respect, and love is the same way you as a human being have a moral responsibility to show others the same. With that said, if you do not learn anything else from this blogpost, remember these two principles:

Treat others how you would like to be treated.

What you sow, you shall surely reap.
