Success is not instantaneous

In my previous article I wrote about how lack of patience made me abandon this platform for almost two months and how I nearly gave up. So today I have decided write something worth reading and educative about the virtue called patience

Patience is not just an important virtue, it is crucial to success. From the earliest days of humankind, through to today’s business world, patience can be seen as the difference in achieving success. In the world today, it is clear that patience is becoming an anomaly. More and more often everyone is determined to achieve instant success. The drive for instant success has been developing for years and has recently become the norm.

Patience is a quality that is necessary for achieving greatness. It requires that we sit through periods of inactivity and stagnation despite how excruciating it can be. It also demands that we remain focused on the end result.

Patience is not for cowards who want things to happen yesterday. Patience is for visionaries who have a clear view on where they want to go and a strong belief in themselves. We need to have patience because time doesn't need to be rushed - we are only here once and there's no point accelerating it beyond the realm of our control.

It is only those who make the right decisions when they need to that can still make them when they have to.

Everyone wants to be great, but not everyone can put in the time that comes with it. Everyone has goals but not everyone has the patience to see them through.

Patience is a good quality that we need in the ever rushing world of ours. It is not a virtue only for those who are well-intentioned, but it is a virtue that everyone needs to master.

This is because patience is what will get you somewhere. Patience on the road to success will keep you on the right path, while impatience can lead to wrong turns and poor choices.

Patience is a virtue. It is also a skill that can be taught and developed. There are many benefits to a patient person, such as:

  • Patience can be an emotional safety net for people who are uncertain about their future. They can be confident that they will make it through.

  • Patience when properly practiced, requires tolerance and concentration on current events and needs. This helps lead to self-reliance and progress towards goals.

  • Patience may also prevent you from losing a sense of purpose in your daily activities. Being patient means that one takes the time to go through all the right motions with no rush and no anxiety.

  • Those who become restless, who cannot get enough done in their day, find it impossible to be true to themselves. For them, life has no meaning, no stability, and no purpose for living. Patient people however, are able to focus on the important things in their lives — family, friends, memories — in an unhindered way.

Patience is a virtue and in this world, we find ourselves lacking . In work, love, relationships and faith, people are struggling to be patient as they fall victim to the immediate gratification of their wants and desires.

Underneath it all, is a growing impatience in our daily lives. We want everything now! We want information now! And we want results immediately. When we don’t get it, we blame others or we become negative or worse, we give up. However, the truth about life is that it will never happen instantaneously.

To conclude; I hope we make the patience part of us in the coming new year.

Special thanks to my amazing readers and sponsors without your support I doubt if I will have the necessary motivation to type any article out.

Truly, patience is a virtue. When you have patience every other thing is secondary.

That reminds me of something I read not long ago on Facebook: People don't get tired of going to work every day, but they do get tired of fighting for a business of their own. I paraphrase this sentence, because I am not using the exact words, but the message is the same. To achieve what you want you have to work hard and in some cases make certain sacrifices. Because the benefits I know will be something great and wonderful. Very good post, and very accurate and realistic.

I so agree with this my dear friend, Jeho. Success cannot be done in just a day nor overnight as there are no shortcuts for a great achievement. By the way, I so appreciate your sponsorhip. Really so grateful for that my dear friend.

I keep thanking God that I have learnt how to be patient when it comes to major aspects of my life. I figured out a long time ago that there's no shortcut to success, we just have to keep doing what we do and be patient to reap it's benefits. When you plant a seed today, you don't expect it to start bearing fruits the next day

Patience is far beyond only the ability to wait. It also has to do with the your attitude as you wait for what you want. It's never late to learn.
