Patience Is A Virtue

By Abe Newmeyer, August 9, 2022

Work & BusinessHope & Willingness

We’ve probably heard the adage, right? Today and for the last couple of weeks I’ve been practicing patience. I’m working on someone else’s timeframe. I’m waiting for paperwork. I’d done what I thought was best at the time, but upon further investigation, what I discovered was there was a better way. Now, we’re moving with the best possible option.

I’m a believer in superlatives. I’m of the understanding that He wants the best for His children. I’ve been living in mediocrity, mostly by choice. As I transition to what I believe is His purpose and image for me, I’m recalling the lessons and beliefs of superlatives.

So as I wait for individuals to complete paperwork, for entity formation, and legal paperwork, I practice patience. I am working, doing things behind the scenes needed to ensure my processes are set up and in place. I’m working on the things I don’t enjoy. Those things that are vital, non revenue generating, but definitely revenue inhibitors.

So as I wait to launch I’ll remain patient. I’ll do those things which are needed. I’ll continue along the path envisioned and written months ago. Walking towards what others can not see, knowing what’s possible when others don’t believe, is part of the entrepreneurial journey.

Today, Tuesday, August 9, 2022, I am grateful that:

Tony and I had a great conversation the other day. It’s interesting because his point of view is usually “devil’s advocate” with every concept I work towards. During our talk, he was convinced about my service offering and the disruption it’ll cause to the industry.

Kenneth and I had a great dialogue yesterday. We’ve scheduled collaboration sessions every other week for the time being. I’m curious to see how we can benefit each other.

I’m remembering who I am and what I’ve accomplished. Most times, I leave the past in the past. At times like these, I need to remember what I’ve done and that I can do those things and much greater moving forward.

Have you done all you can do to move forward with your endeavors?

What can you do today to move closer towards fulfilling your purpose?

How can you be even more impactful today?

Be Great. Be Grateful!!!
