Enthusiastic Energetic
Effort gains all Success:

The
Blessed
Buddha once said:
Friends, the lazy person dwells in misery, soiled by evil detrimental states.
Great is the personal advantage, which
such one thereby neglects & looses.
But the energetic
& enthusiastic person lives happily, secluded from evil
detrimental states,
&
great is the personal advantage, that he thereby wins.
It is not by the inferior, that the supreme is attained. Rather, it is only by
a
truly
supreme effort, that the supreme state is attained. Friends, this Noble
Life
is a
sublime juice! Therefore, friends, while this Dhamma Teaching is still
present here arouse your
energy
for the attainment of the yet unattained,
for achievement of the yet
unachieved,
for realization of the yet unrealized...
Considering your own future,
friends, is enough motivation to make all effort
for reaching this goal; considering the
good
future of others, is also enough
motivation to do your best; considering the best
of both, is more than enough
inspiration to strive for the supreme goal with diligent
thoroughness!
Thus acutely and enthusiastically, friends, should you train yourselves!
