What's your dream? What's your passion? What's your hope and desire? Often times we want our dreams, passion, and desires to be like water gushing out of the faucet. We want our relationships to be immediately better. We want our waist line to be immediately smaller. We want our dreams to immediately turn into reality.
However, life doesn't really work that way. There are a few examples of immediate water gushing out of the faucet. For a small percentage of people things do happen over night.
But for the large majority of people, success comes over an extended period of time. For most people, its more of a process that I'd like to call the DRIPPING FAUCET effect.
A dripping faucet may not seem like much, but over time it can produce a lot of water. As we chase our dreams, strive to reach out goals, and follow after our desires, we need to realize that life is more like a dripping faucet. It's going to take time! It might seem small and insignificant, but over time our consistency WILL PAY OFF.
There will be days that we have an urge to turn off the faucet on our dreams. We will become frustrated, annoyed, and irritated that things are taking to long. Resist the urge! Let the faucet of your dreams continue to DRIP, DRIP, and DRIP.
Eventually, your dreams will become reality...drip by drip.
