Trust the process

POTENTIALS NEED TIME TO MANIFEST

A caterpillar achieves its full potential the moment it turns into a butterfly, but before it does, there is a process (metamorphosis) it must go through. True potential is not always immediate, it often requires patience, persistence, and time to fully reveal itself. Like a seed planted in fertile soil, growth happens beneath the surface before any visible sign appears on the surface. In this era of fast, and instant success people want quick results, but greatness unfolds at its own pace.

No one can make sustainable and remarkable achievements overnight. There exists in acheiver in history whose success cannot be traced to verifiable and legitimate process. Walt Disney, Thomas Edison, J. K. Rawlings, Abraham Lincoln, and Barack Obama all went through the process to arrive at the peak of their journey. You may need to fail repeatedly before you get your breakthrough, that is part of the process.

The process towards fulfilling your true potential is rarely linear; it is filled with setbacks, learning curves, and gradual refinement. This quiet phase of invisible progress and development is often undervalued, and avoided by many, but they are the periods where foundations are built. Mastery demands discipline when no one is applauding, resilience when discouragement lingers, and faith in the invisible but progressive process.

If your efforts are yet to yield the results you desire, remember, delayed visibility does not translate to the absence of growth. Trust the process, keep nurturing your skills, ideas, and dreams. Potentials are not lost because they have not manifested. When the time is right, what was once hidden will emerge, undeniable and fully formed. Until then, keep going, keep building. The world will see your potential when it fully manifests.

To a better you, Kamikun John.
