Slow-moving change

Which stopped working first? You or the new habit?

The problem with “will begin to see results in four to six weeks” is that we often don’t have weeks worth of patience. We’d rather see the results right now, thank you very much.

Whether it’s a new medicine, a fitness routine, a creative practice, or studying new material … change doesn’t always happen overnight. More often, change is gradual. And for what might seem like too long, change can be invisible. Like a germinating seed, the (important) initial stages of growth can be hidden from our eyes.

Trust the process. Give it time. Work worth doing is reward worth waiting.
