"Without labor nothing prospers."
Sophocles
The word labor generates individual thoughts. What it means to a man, for example, may be entirely different to what it means for a woman. Even when the word is narrowed down to actual physical labor, a construction worker imagines something quite different than the woman giving birth.
Whether we are laboring over a year end report or the development of an architectural project, our mind pushes through obstacles to arrive at an end result. Both mentally and physically, one labors to the best of his or her ability.
There is a difference between laboring to be the best at all cost and laboring to produce our very best. These two goals invite challenges ranging from 'cutting corners' to the intensity of integrity. Whatever the scenario, honor the creative spirit of a job well done.
