In this present world of ‘instant’ response, instant noodle, fast food and so forth, our mind are trained to getting the desired outcomes instantly. We spend more time on getting stressed up looking for the outcome and ignore the need to look at and work on the process to get the outcome.
It is the process that will bring you the outcome. If there be any delay in the outcome, we should look carefully at the process. The way we go about it could be wrong. We may need to improve certain part of the process. There could be people that we need to meet and ask for advices. There are certain levers that we have not push yet. In fact, it is in this process of discovery, what works, what doesn’t work, where we need to put in more effort in finding out which activities we should stop doing that bring us the growth and create the joy. Most often, the joy we had when we receive the outcome we want, has very short life. We are usually thrilled for a short while. After we got what we want, we often wonder what’s next.
We should always see life as a journey with many steps. We should learn to enjoy this journey despite the challenges and disappointments we sometime faces. We must learn to see that things happen not to us but for us.
Secondly, we need to spend time on the process to get the outcome. Don’t blame others or the circumstances for the delay. Learn to make improvements in the process.
Have the right attitude and mind set to have a joyful and meaning life.
