Good things take time... Read and repeat

Good Things Take Time (Even When We Don't Want Them To)

No one wants to hear that something is going to take time. We live in a world of instant everything. Instant shipping, instant ordering, instant knowledge, instant shows with no commercials.

So I know when I say "good things take time", it might make you cringe a little. But hear me out.

Take a second today to think back on a moment when something in your life didn’t work out. Maybe it was a relationship, a job, a house you didn’t get, or even that pair of jeans you swore would change your life.

Now fast forward to today.

What does that thing look like from where you are now? Are you counting your lucky stars it didn’t happen because it led you somewhere better? Or are you still stuck in that mental hamster wheel, feeling like things still aren’t working out?

Here’s the truth: good things really do take time.

Your health journey.

Your marriage.

Your career.

Your dreams.

But they also take action.

We can’t just wish our way into a 10-pound weight loss, a thriving relationship, or climbing the corporate ladder. It takes consistency. Intention. Effort.

So let this be your little reality check today:

Take small steps.

Stay patient.

Keep going.

Because one day, you’re going to look back and say,

"Man, here I am… and it is good. And it took time to get here."

You’ve got this, girl.
