Life doesn't get easier, you just get stronger.

生活从未变得轻松，是你在一点一点变得坚强。

So in the same way we can get the other opposite conclusion:

Life doesn't get harder, you just get weaker.

Is the conclusion right? The answer depends on our own experience.

It is almost unavoidable to encounter some difficulties, fear, frustrations when we are growing up, how we react to them will determine whether we can become strong or not.

If we can face up with them in a right way, or take them under our control, or overcome them successfully, our confidence, our abilities, will take on a new step.

If we can't, if we just deny these realities, if we just want to escape from these responsibilites, we will surely miss the chances to improve ourselves.

Today I felt very sleepy in the work time, I have fallen sleep several times when facing the screen of my computer.

After waken up by others, there was a sense of guility that made me feel depressed.

Can I write down some useful program, hundreds of lines, every day?

Can I hand out some perfect solutions to those existing problems?

 

You can't build a reputation on what you are going to do.

你是无法靠你打算去做的事情来树立名声。

From Henry Ford.

Only what you have done can help you build up your reputation.

Those things staying in the planning stage have no meaning and have no practical effects.

Rather than always planning to do something great, we'd better to make some trivial things realized.

It is just one small step after anothers that can help us reach our final destination.

Every day is a new day, it is better to be lucky. But I would rather be exact, then when luck comes, I am ready.

Actually there is no time to think about what I don't have, whereas I should spend more time on thinking of what I can do with what there is.

But, then, nothing is easy.
