THE POWER OF PATIENCE
Most of us confuse patience with passivity—standing still, doing nothing, letting life pass by. But true patience is anything but weak. It's active, focused energy held in perfect position until the right moment arrives.What if the very thing you've been treating as weakness is actually your greatest source of power?
Life is waiting for you each day and you have to prepare for each challenge along the way towards success. It's not simple, but it can be done. Welcome to my Common Sense Motivation episodes. I'm Chris Fantastic Powell the Power of Patience. Patience isn't just waiting. Patience is strength. Patience is focus. Patience is one of the greatest powers you will ever carry in life.
Speaker 1:Most people confuse patience with weakness. They think patience means standing still, doing nothing, letting life pass by. But let me tell you, patience is not passive. Patience is active. Patience is energy held in position until the right moment. Think of an archer the bow is pulled back, the string is tight, the arrow is loaded. Patience is holding that bow steady until the target is clear. That's power, that's control, that's knowing that just because you can release it right now doesn't mean you should.
Speaker 1:Every single one of us will face storms financial setbacks, relationship struggles, business failures, health battles, doubt, fear, rejection. They come knocking and in those moments patience becomes the bridge between where you are and where you're going. Patient gives you the ability to outlast a storm. The winds may blow, but patience anchors you. The waves may rise, but patience steadies your boat. Everyone else panics, runs and quits, but not you. You know that patience will carry you through. The impatient person gives up right before the blessing shows up. They walk away just before the door unlocks. They quit at mile 25 of a 26-mile marathon. But the patient person, they press on, they wait with strength, they believe in the unseen and in the end they win.
Speaker 1:Think about the farmer. He plants his seed, covers it with dirt and walks away. He doesn't dig it up every hour to see if it's growing. He knows that the harvest takes time. He waters it, he waits, and when the season is right, the field produces abundance. That's how life works. Your dreams, your goals, your successes they're seeds. Patience is what gives them the time to take root and grow strong. And without patience you'll never see the fruit. So don't confuse delay with denial. Don't mistake waiting for weakness. Waiting is training, Waiting is strengthening. Waiting is preparation. Waiting is strengthening. Waiting is preparation.
Speaker 1:Patience is a power, a power that will allow you to overcome any and all circumstances life puts in your path. When others fall, patience will keep you standing. When others quit, patience will keep you moving. When others doubt, patience will keep you believing. So stay steady, keep your bow drawn, keep your seed watered and keep your faith alive, Because with patience, there is no circumstance you cannot overcome, no mountain you cannot climb and no storm you cannot outlast. That's the power of patience. Make it happen. I'm Chris Fantastic Powell. Thank you for listening. Make it happen. I'm Chris Fantastic Powell. Thank you for listening.
