The time it takes

Value is built over time, with sustained effort and commitment. Don’t cheat yourself out of that value by chasing instant results.

In order to turn a corner, you must first get to it. When you seek to create a breakthrough, you have to lay the groundwork for it.

Get yourself moving in a positive direction, then enjoy the ride and give it the time it takes. Even though the fulfillment is not yet complete, you can already begin to experience it.

Don’t be afraid of the time it will take to make real progress. Be thankful for the opportunity to continue giving your best effort as time goes on.

You’ll find great joy in meaningful effort. The longer and more committed the effort is, the more fulfillment you experience.

Give yourself and your work the time it takes. Choose a worthy destination, and treasure every step of the journey.
