“Never give up on a dream just because of the time it will take to accomplish it. The time will pass anyway.” — Earl Nightingale
Never give up on what you desire in life just because someone else appears to have an easier time getting what they desire or is making progress more quickly than you are.
Remind yourself as necessary that life is not a competition and that some people will always make progress more quickly than others. That’s life.
But your life, your circumstances, and your goals are your own. Don’t let the simple fact that others are working on and achieving their goals deter you from working on and achieving your own.
Always remember that every little step you take towards a goal — no matter how small — is progress.
