Expectations

Most people vastly overestimate where they can be in a day and drastically underestimate where they can be in a year or two years or five years. We live in a world of instant gratification. People expect results immediately and when those results don’t occur when expected, people have a tendency to give up. This happens while not realizing that all they could ever dream of having is often right around the corner if only they would push on. It is essential to understand that success in anything is a process. It takes time, effort, and commitment to build anything especially something that actually adds value.

Things don’t just happen over night. You have to be willing to put in the work consistently and persistently. Often the best thing you can do is start where you are at an move on from there. Results are the consequence of drive, not the energy behind it.
