You Can't Yank A Flower To Make It Grow Faster

By Evan Sanders


There's an old saying that I love. It is something similar to - you can't yank on a flower to make it grow faster.

How extraordinary is that?

Developing true patience must be one of the hardest things to really develop. But without patience, we do not give ourselves the real opportunity to see things fully through. Additionally, there are several things in this world that call for our patience and will only develop when we really bring it into our lives. Maybe there's unfinished business we still have with someone in our life or we are giving something the space and time to grow and develop. Think about all of your dreams. Oftentimes, our dreams don't occur because we aren't yet the individual that can truly achieve them. In fact , that's practically always so. We are not getting what we'd like so we will grow into the person we really need to be to finally achieve our biggest dreams.

Patience is the key to allowing our future to unfold in front of us without our projections onto it. Patience, is the power to stay utterly present in the instant without trying to live forward.

This is hard. Really hard.

A great deal of the time we wish to make things turn out precisely the way in which we see them in our mind. The real difficulty with this is that we are attempting to control a place and time that's truly wild. Oftentimes, the future unfolds in totally different strategies than what we were expecting. This is not always a horrible thing though. Rather, this is often an absolute present giving us what we truly needed in our lives instead of what we wanted. Wouldn't you rather just live in that place - a place of complete possibility and opportunity?

When we let go of what we think should occur, we allow for life to actually surprise us.

Develop some patience. Everything will come to you in the best time.
