Not everything should be easy.

A friend from a former job writes the following:
If you know yourself, you know the things at which you excel and the things at which you don't. 
If you're lucky, you'll find yourself doing things that you find easy. If you're really, really lucky, you'll find yourself doing easy things that make you happy. Sometimes, rare individuals find themselves happy doing things they find extremely difficult. These last individuals are either delusional, self-indulgent or both. (I would argue that those who boast that they are happy facing challenges are not really being all that challenged, but I digress).
I do not agree. Follow the link to the full post, with my comments and his responses.

To thine own self be true
