Instant gratification is what American society has come to expect. Fast food, the microwave, minute rice. But to truly get better at something, you have to work on it. You have to give it time to develop and grow. You can't expect results within 48 hours, so relax and have patience for your hard work to pay off.
Too many times I've seen athletes quit programs because they weren't getting the results they expected quick enough. They expected immediate results and to become firebreathers over night. They didn't expect that getting the results they want requires hard work and patience. So instead of sticking with it, they gave up and went back to their comfort zone. It's a shame, because they are going to miss out on the huge benefits they would have gained if they just stuck with it.
Great results take hard work and patience. Sometimes you have to start all over in order to improve. Whether its a lift, a program, a relationship, or your life. Always be willing to start over in order to do it right. And just like a good, solid lift, don't rush it. Be patient and enjoy the journey.
