Patience, Additional Key to Success

Have you thought of buying stocks from ALPHABET, Google’s new parent company? Did anyone thought of purchasing stocks from Facebook when it went public? How many people thought of buying stocks from a small company without famous brand or identity?

Some people answers no to these questions. Others regret not acting when they had the chance. For example companies that went public in early 20^th century had a few people purchasing stocks from them. Small investments in such companies then would now worth high return on investment. But considering the time it takes for such investment to yield to maturity, very few people will see the positive future. Because we are mostly driven by current circumstances.

It is the human nature to thrive after instant result from any action or desire. There is nothing wrong about it. But when making investments, it is better to consider serving a purpose. Every investor invests in the business for a specific reason. It can be financial or non-financial. He/she thrives after a specific result.

But in a corporation, purposes are traditionally vision, mission and scopes. These directs it. They are long-term-driven. They defines and drives suitable brand for the enterprise. It allows management to drive the business forward.

For instance, vision, mission and scope makes brand choice easier for a company’s driving power. When the driving power is having products that allow people to socialize, the brand should say we are a company that connect people and communicate in different ways.

A process drives productivity. It is impossible to start certain things and finish them within a day, week, month or even year. For instance, when taking a million dollar loan, we can’t pay it back within a year. Because even if the company has one million dollars profit, it might rather seek to improve than pay back. Because the corporation has a contract for duration of payment. We will only pay back earlier if we have no plan.

Everything we do takes time – from start to finish. Don’t think too much about the time it takes to produce something. Spend the time it requires to achieve the goal, as you follow the process. A path has a process that simplifies its progress, and every one of them should produce something before it progress.

We needs to gather the whole process, and watch them like a hawk. Because they tells you when to take action for a progressive path to success. Someone once said, “We should do it as we supposed to, for it to produce desired result”, because what we do reflects on what we get. This is one reason people believes life is what we make it.

The progress has to result in something specific, which means putting everything in a specific order. And see it moving closer to success. Because if everything was done accordingly and co-ordinate plans with objectives, it facilitates its result. When we have done something as we need to, we see a productive end-result.

When we want results, we must consider possible challenges in the process. Because any success worth achieving make challenges more valuable when deciding best way to proceed when facing challenges. Every challenge needs creativity, strategy and dedication to overcome it.

There is no problem when we see solution in front of us. For example, when you know best solution, will you consider it a problem? Problem without solution leads to frustration. This is why we need to solve problems through influencing it, which eventually solve it. The “Problem Resolution Formula” is a useful technique to solve it.

When we think of how to tackle a challenge, there won’t be a problem. But no matter how many challenges comes your ways, think rather about how to tackles or solve it because “Challenges don’t mean Failure”. I believe you can do it, and you know you can.

You started for a reason. You see opportunities, and challenges are important to make the success worthwhile. Changes are part of the driving power that makes you appreciate success even more. When we work hard for something, it worth more to us. When going through challenges, have patience on the way to success. For example, when you send an application to a government agency, you can’t expect instant result because of the time it takes for agency’s officials to go through the application.

You are patience because you awaits result, which you know will come to you. Some results come within a week, while others takes up to six months or even a year. But you still wait for that result. The same patience work with business. But in a longer term. We know what it takes, and we work towards it, but it doesn’t mean instant result.

That takes some time. Be patience on your way through all challenges. One method is forgetting about the investment, while driving the business. It means investing in the purpose. For example, you wouldn’t purchase a house and sell it the following day with bargain. It is possible, but rare.

However, if you’d forget what you initially invested, and focus on why you did it, you’d get extra energy to achieve the expected result. It is more powerful and define what we invest in. Because we solely focus on why we made the investment. When we forget about it, we give it the time it takes for it to be productive, while following its progress. Because being result-driven make us focus on achieving a specific result, and that has its own process.

Process takes its time, and we can’t afford to rush it. Especially when we have certain objectives in every step of the process. We follows its progress. We can’t expect instant result when parts of the process brings success closer to you, as you’d follow the process of a productive end-result. Through this, we can embrace the result.

Success has different perspectives. When someone is thinking something is crazy, another person sees an opportunity for a new business. We have a distinguish perspective about things.  Most of the time, some people find a business idea a little bit too crazy.

A business has to embrace success through multiple channels (marketing, human resources, leadership and management etc.), because it mostly establish a business. There are others in the business – competitors – that make distinguish strategies necessary to embrace success.

In conclusion, people mostly want instant result. This is problematic to achieve success, because we have to serve a purpose when starting a business and drive it to success. We must give everything we do time to mature or produce something. During this time, we watch the whole process like a hawk. When following the whole process, and done everything we need to do, it will yield desired result.

On the way to success, handle emerging challenges. No matter how many they are, don’t let them go to our heart. Because we have to be patience with everything, from doing something to solving a problem. Our investments takes time to yield positive result, and we have to give it the time it takes to achieve it.

We need to forget about the investment, and focus on why we made the investment. Because it will take time for it to progress. Let success in and embrace it when it comes knocking. Because embracing it simplifies its achievement.
