Hard work won’t kill you

James K. Polk (1795-1849)

Hard work is just that. It’s hard. As in not easy.

But there is no shortcut to doing it right.

The long way IS the shortcut.

Though I occupy a very high position, I am the hardest working man in the country.
James K. Polk, 11th President of the United States (1845-1849)

    Polk was one of my favorite presidents. He accomplished most of his campaign issues (imagine that today) and said he would only serve one term from the outset (which he did).

      I was able to visit his home in Columbia, TN many years ago. The two points you mentioned have stuck with me since learning about him in the 1970’s.

      Thanks for stopping by and commenting! 🙂
