one step at a time 5 one step at a time 7 Patience is the key to almost everything in this world. I've met people who are reckless and don't really plan their lives and, let me tell you, things don't always work out well for them. I don't think you need to plan every single thing in your life but it certainly doesn't hurt to have goals and map out a plan to achieve those. The thing is, even when you have the best of plans, there are things that you didn't consider that will slow you down. That's when patience kicks in.

Without obstacles, without struggle, sometimes we lose the motivation to keep going. Or at least that's how I like to look at complicated situations. When something's too easy, you pay little attention to it; it's the rush of hunting that keeps us going. But, like I said, sometimes the obstacles will motivate you and sometimes they'll make you want to give up, mostly when you fail to understand the reason behind those. The moments when life doesn't make sense are the toughest to overcome.

One step a time... I've heard that a million times and I'm starting to realise it's true. We need to take our time, analyse situations and move one step a time. Ruling the world isn't an easy task, you will meet people that'll try to slow you down and, you know what? That's normal, you just need to retreat, make a new plan and attack again. Take one step a time, little by little, piece by piece... And when you least expect it, you'll realise that you're closer and closer to achieve your goals, to fulfil your dreams. Just remember, when life gets tough, take it one step a time. 

// La paciencia es un elemento clave para casi todo en este mundo. He conocido gente que nunca hace planes para su vida y, déjenme decirles, las cosas no siempre funcionan bien para ellos. No creo que necesites planear todo en tu vida pero, ciertamente, no lastima tener metas y planear estrategias para cumplirlas. La cosa es, aún cuando tienes el mejor de los planes, siempre habrá cosas que no consideraste y esas te alentarán. Ahí es cuando hay que ser pacientes.

Sin obstáculos, sin trabajo, a veces perdemos la motivación para seguir avanzando. O al menos así es como me gusta ver las situaciones complicadas. Cuando algo es muy fácil, le prestas muy poca atención; es la emoción de la caza lo que nos hace seguir adelante. Pero, como dije, a veces los obstáculos te motivan y otras veces te harán querer rendirte, principalmente cuando no entiendes las razones detrás de ellos. Los momentos donde la vida no tiene sentido son los más difíciles de superar.

Un paso a la vez... He escuchado eso un millón de veces y comienzo a darme cuenta que es verdad. Tenemos que tomar nuestro tiempo, analizar las situaciones y movernos un paso a la vez. Conquistar el mundo no es tarea fácil, conocerán gente que tratará de frenarlos y, ¿saben qué? Es normal, lo que hay que hacer es retirarse, armar un plan nuevo y atacar otra vez. Tomar un paso a la vez, poco a poco, pieza por pieza... Y cuando menos lo esperen, se darán cuenta que están mucho más cerca de cumplir sus metas, de conseguir sus sueños. Sólo recuerden, cuando la vida se ponga difícil, tómenla un paso a la vez.
