Why are so many people looking for shortcuts when life is long? -Gary V
If you think the success you have always dreamt of is right around the corner, then you would be wise to entertain a different idea. BUT the success you have always imagined is also right around the corner, just not the corner you had in mind.
Here’s where I am headed.
WINNERS are marathon runners, not sprinters.
The reality is, no one has ever become an overnight success.
Stop looking for immediate success. Do not pursue short-term success. Success is about the long game. If you are pursuing success with the hope of it coming to fruition over the next month or in the next eighteen months, then you are in for THE big let down. What you will get in its place will not bring you lasting fulfillment.
So, be patient! Remember, what you are seeking is also seeking after you. You will become an overnight success, but only after you’ve put in consistent hard work over time.
Thank you, I needed this reminder.

Now that is a well constructed statement: “The success you have always imagined is also right around the corner, just not the corner you had in mind.”
The universe does have a way of reshaping our corners, doesn’t it.

Nice insight, I believe it is also important to define success, in realistic goals. This will help you to understand what it looks like when you get there.

I believe one should pursue ridiculously impossible goals – something much bigger than him/herself.
