The Thing About Waiting

Do good things come to those who wait?

Patience while building a meaningful body of work, resisting the temptation to cut corners that will dilute the transformation you can provide those you seek to serve.

Careful, thoughtful movements while creating something special, precious, important, resisting the temptation to sacrifice what makes it great for the sake of speed.

Staying ready so that you don’t have to get ready when the opportunity for you to shine comes along. Being prepared, every day, without rushing or forcing things forward.

The problem with waiting is… it can become habitual.

Continuing to wait when the opportunity to take action comes along.

Never shipping because you’re so used to refining and re-polishing your work.

Staying ready when you were supposed to stand up and be brave.

Let’s amend the adage: “Good things come to those who wait… then take brave action when the time comes.”
