Staying Consistent When Progress Is Not Evident

Don't ever underestimate the amount of progress you are making when results are not physically displayed. We often want to give up when we don't reach our desired outcome in an hour. The plight of this generation is the belief that success should be seen overnight. It is more important to maintain consistent discipline when the bells, whistles, and fireworks of excitement and initial momentum wear off. For one, your character is being developed and two your sight will increase. Sight in the sense that I'm speaking on refers to long term vision. A great person can stay true to a long term vision and actually accomplish it whereas the average person can barely accomplish a short term vision. If you are able to remain consistent through the peaks, valleys, and plateus, you will be more fulfilled than many of your counterparts in the long run.A great tree does not sprout in a day. Progess is not evident for many days, but under the soil (what is unseen), the roots are growing and becoming fixed in the ground. The unseen time in our lives is what gives us a solid foundation to build on that enables us to stand in greatness throughout the rest of our lives when our time comes.
