if you rush today, you'll ruin tomorrow

i am a person who likes things done straight away
as fast as possible
as best as possible
all the time

but I'm beginning to realise,
this is bigger then anything i have every targeted.
i haven't made it in the past,
and why?

not because i was not good enough
not because i was not strong enough
not even because i was not courageous enough
but because i was not patient enough

Good things come to those who wait,
if you want fast results
all you'll get is short term results

this life isn't about today, or tomorrow
not even about 3 months from now.
we need to start seeing the world in terms of years
not months or days
seeing the short term
doesn't help the long term

and after all,
in terms of running
isn't what i do in 3 months time more important then what i do today.
or next week.

this is my moment
to define who i am and what really matters
to see past whats right in front of my face and to look into the distance

this is about knowing what i want
becoming who i need to be
and more importantly
believing in my ability

i will become what i know i am
