DEPEND ON PATIENCE TO GET THE BEST OUT OF LIFE

51      DEPEND ON PATIENCE

Success is not a journey for the weak, neither is victory a game for mediocre or the timid; but for those (people) who are embodiments of breakthrough via versatility and creativity. To achieve any goal or set any enviable standards, you must pay the price of bravery and doggedness; so you could fall the walls of every militating obstacles. There should be no-mercy-syndrome; such that, the pace is kept high out there without fear of deviation or distraction.

Indeed, Kautilya; an Indian philosopher once said something very salient about achieving greatness; that, “Those who seek to achieve things should show no mercy”. Moreover, do not be modeled by the pattern of life around you that are inconsequential to your growth, rather erect a wall of defense to build your career distinctively. As a matter of fact, refuse to be weak or blinded (creative-wise). Renew yourself by shaping a new identity for your future; refuse to be tossed around by difficulties resulting from inferiority complex or mediocrity, learn to stand firm on what you know is right or whatever you believe in.

Avoid being weak, because weak people; according to Cardinal De Retz; “(Weak people) never give way when they ought to”. Simply for fear of taking the bull by the horns or acting against all odds irrespective of what or who is involved. More so, never seem to be in a hurry – “Hurry indeed, is a product of fear and fear is an end-product of cowardice that justifies failure”.

Learn to be patient, no matter the magnitude of the expectations or the velocity of the process; one thing for sure is that “All is well that ends well” and all wound must be healed, only by time (patiently). The secret of great powers lie in unflinching persistence and unwavering patience; no matter what.
