Most often we give up just at the break of miracle. Patience is a virtue we most learn to apply in every aspect of life. Patience is not just folding arms and waiting, but instead it working hard in expectation of a positive outcome. A farmer does not just plant seeds, and go to bed, he checks, removes weed, and nurtures his crop until maturity. Our attitude towards success should be no different. In cutting down a tree, one blow of the hammer does not bring down the tree, in short the heavy the success, the more effort we need to put in. Lack of insight has made many people give up just at the point of breakthrough. Great things start small and grow big, this has been the story of great people, they applied the principle of building up. When you have a destination in mind, your duty is to keep making effort to take you to your destination. So you go into despair, remember to keep knocking, keep walking because life is journey.
