I’ve written about this in other iterations. I’ve talked about finding your rhythm, and the importance of letting things come to you, not forcing things, and then riding the momentum when you have the wind at your back. The point of it all is that success is not linear. Progress doesn’t follow a straight line. For most people, the journey is long and winding. It looks more like a stairway or a hockey stick. You make small incremental movements that are so small you don’t notice them, but every so often, when the momentum is there and the timing is right, you make large quantum leaps. If you're impatient, you’ll force things when they’re not there and end up taking two or three steps backward, and if you’re not aggressive enough or afraid to take risks, you’ll miss the biggest opportunities of your life.
