Why Patience Is Important In Accomplishing Your Goals
How long are you willing to wait to see your dreams come into fruition?
Dreams do not come true over night. It probably won’t be a few weeks or months either.
Dreams require years of constant persistence, and unwavering enthusiasm. Even the slightest let up can mean having to start all over again.
Just because you do not see any immediate results does not mean they are not in the works.
It’s just like watering a plant. You have to water it consistently every day for x amount of days until you begin to see any sign of your work paying off, but if you continue to water it, soon it will flourish, and flourish luxuriantly.
Everyone knows the story of Thomas Edison. Would you have been able to go through 10,000 failures just to find success?
Most of us would have quit after the first 10 tries or so.
Some of us would have persisted to the mid hundreds, and a handful of the real champions may have gotten into the thousands, but success lies in the perpetual pursuit of it. You cannot put a limit on your attempts to achieve it, because then you’re leaning on hope, and not faith.
Hope says try 10 times and HOPE to win within those attempts. Faith says try and try and have FAITH that eventually your attempts will yield success.
How bad do you want it? How long are you willing to wait?
How much can you take until you begin to slow your efforts?
More times than not, when we’re ready to quit, success lies just around the corner. Remember that.
