How Patience Is Going To Change Your Life

(Picture by monteclareschool.org)


It always starts with this is what I want…

Or…

This is what I need…

But 99% of the people who make those two statements never get what they want or what they need.
Why is that?

I’ll let you in on the secret to why they don’t achieve what they say they want or need.

The reason is… They QUIT.

They lack Patience.

You can achieve almost anything you want or need in life if you are willing to be patient, and never give up.

There is a saying that says: “You can never beat a person who refuses to quit.”

Why do you think that is?

Think about that for a minute.

Stop reading right now and give yourself a whole two minutes to think about the quote.

“You can never beat a person who refuses to quit.”


Why do you think that is?

Here are a few reasons why that might be:

  • These people are focused on achieving the thing they have set their mind too.
  • These people do not listen to others.
  • These people do not let others assign value to them or their pursuits in life.
  • These people want this thing so bad it is almost like the air they breathe.
  • These people can’t and won’t imagine their life without it.
  • They refuse to take “No” as an answer and are dedicated to finding a way to achieve their goal.
  • Why an obstacle is put in their path they find a way around it, over it, through it, or under it, but they don’t let obstacles stop them.
  • These flat out refuse to quit.

These people have patience.

But in order to have patience you have to be willing to do a few things:

  • You have to be willing to endure until the end.
  • You have to be willing to suffer for what it is you want or need.
  • You have to be able to self motivate yourself when the days are long and dark.
  • You have to be willing to believe in yourself.
  • You have to be able to put up with ridicule and mockery.
  • You have to be able to whether trials and tribulations.
  • You have to be able to have a strong conviction to your end goal.
  • You have to be able to stand alone in the face of adversity.
  • You have to be able to have the grit to keep going no matter what happens to you or what obstacle is placed in your path.
  • You have to know beyond a shadow of a doubt what your “why” is.

Is this you?

Do you have the patience to achieve the things you want and need in life?

Margret Thatcher probably best summed it up with this quote below:

So I’ll ask you again…

Is this you?

Are you willing to do what’s required of you to be patient?

The choice is always yours to make my friends.

But at least now you can’t say that you don’t know what it takes to achieve the things you say you want and need in life.
