Preparation and the right time

I have a lesson in English textbooks in elementary school:

A king asked the painter to paint a horse for him. The painter agreed and left. Twenty years later, he appeared in the palace and painted a horse in five minutes. The horse vividly ran out of the paper. The king was very happy and disappointed at the same time, so he asked curiously.

"Since you can draw a great horse in five minutes, why didn't you do it 20 years ago?"

The painter replied: "It took me 20 years to learn how to draw a horse in five minutes."

The morale I learned from this lesson is that it takes time to achieve significant achievements. If there is enough time, the water will pass through the rock; if there is enough time, the iron can be ground into a needle. Long-lasting exercises are perfect.

Twenty years ago, the painter did not know how to draw a horse. Twenty years later, he was fully prepared to draw a dreamy horse in five minutes. I have been sticking to this question since the English class - why did he not show up a good horse in an hour after five years? Does he really have to wait so long to appear so perfectly? Fortunately, the king did not die in twenty years.

Being ready is an important issue for our personal growth. When you are not ready, you can't get good results. People once asked me why I didn't do something at some point, and I replied that I was not ready yet. You may be trapped somewhere because you neglect some form of spiritual, emotional, economic, relationship or voluntary growth in your life. You must work hard to be prepared.

At some point, I found myself unable to stand up. No matter what I plan to do, weaknesses and insecurities disappoint me. So I admit that I need to be strong first and try to find a stronger, patient person to drag me. No one can break the law of the universe - the power and security before freedom. Find your weakness and fix it first.

The creek flows into the river; the river flows into the ocean. Water drops are worn; deliberate practice is perfect. But you don't have to wait for the perfect conversation, do it, launch it, and implement it. It's easy to miss an opportunity while waiting for the perfect time.

Life is a balancing act on available resources. Be prepared, prepare and seize the right time.
