Can’t Hurry Love - You Just Have to Wait

The once famous Phil Collins’ song - still hold true today, even for entrepreneurship :) Call me outdated, but I like that song :P

You can’t hurry success - you just have to wait.

Success comes to those who are persistent, resilient, and great learner - although not always.

Good things don’t always happen to good people

Say, what?

Not always? Yes - not always. We have to do some reality check here.

Nobody can guarantee you success. HOWEVER, success will eventually come if you are willing to wait.

You see, success is not an end result - success is a process.

Getting a million dollar sales figure this year is a great milestone, but not necessarily a success - its a byproduct.

entrepreneur’s personal trait + persistence, resilience, lifelong learning + opportunities = success

Where’s luck in the equation? I am a true believer that there is no thing such as luck.

In my opinion, what people say of ‘luck’ is opportunities presented within your sight and you are ’smart and experienced enough’ to grab it and act on it right.

I conclude…

So, related to Phil Collin’s song - I just wanna say, “Whaddup? Can’t hurry success, you just have to wait, y’all!”

Sometimes people have to fail a ton of times before they get it right. That’s why success does not always happen to ‘good people’ - those who are persistent, resilient, and great learner.

But success do ALWAYS happen for those who are willing to do what ‘good people’ do… and waiting… and waiting… and waiting… patience is key.

My question to you, are you willing to wait?
