The Ride Of Your Life
by Bert Oliva
In today’s world, we’re never satisfied. We want what we want and we want it yesterday. Immediate gratification seems to be the motto of the modern world. Why wait when you can have it now?
However, anything truly worth having is worth waiting for. It takes six months to create a Rolls Royce, while it only takes 13 hours to create a Toyota. Both are vehicles that will get you form point A to point B, but which will give you the quality of travel you want?
If you want the “Rolls Royce” experience in all aspects of your life, you have to work towards it daily. And you have to be patient. Good things take time and this time is necessary to prepare your mindset for what is coming to you so that you can have long-term results. If you get things before you are mentally prepared, you are much more likely to lose or damage those things. For instance, if you get a Rolls Royce before you have learned how to take care of it, you may damage it even before you get to truly enjoy it.
So, take this time to prepare yourself. Study what you know is coming to you. Prepare yourself for the lifestyle you are building towards. Realize that you are on your path for the long run and know that good things are on their way.

1) Create a clear vision of what it is that you are pushing towards; write it down or create a collage of pictures, whatever works best for you.
2) Write a contract with yourself, telling yourself what it is you are working towards and committing to yourself that you will be patient and keep pushing towards your goal, no matter what happens.
3) Whenever you are doubting, review your vision and contract and remind yourself that you will not quit until you have achieved what you are working towards.
