Excerpt from Paths to the Heights

Our optimistic minds enable us to pass the early days of a journey in comparative joy, even though some trials are met, and some suffering is endured. We are sustained by a hope that these disagreeable experiences will seldom come; that the skies will usually be clear and the way smooth. But, as we jour ney on, the hard nature of the undertaking appears, and our problem soon becomes that of dealing with our own undisciplined selves in such a way that we shall be able to go on with alacrity and zeal to ultimately find in hard experiences a well-spring of joy far more satisfying than the immature hilarity of the early days.

We soon settle down into a steady pace, regulated stages, satisfactory rests, and a hardihood which means ultimate success.
