For Your Consideration – A Quote

I read this quote and it immediately reminded me of a number of people I know.  I’d like to see if anyone else sees this as pertinent as I do these days.  Seems like people always have an excuse or someone to blame for their not doing anything with their lives.

“There are many who find a good alibi far more attractive than an achievement. For an achievement does not settle anything permanently. We still have to prove our worth anew each day: we have to prove that we are as good today as we were yesterday. But when we have a valid alibi for not   achieving anything we are fixed, so to speak, for life.”  –Eric Hoffer

All too often true.
