I have seen many awesome people come and go that didn't have the patience to wait.
Instant gratification mindset doesn't work here on steemit. If it did we would all be millionaires without any effort and sitting on a beach with a beer in hand.
Problem is most people wish for things in life. Very few work for them. My Dad would tell me "wish in one hand and spit in the other and see which one fill up faster". This wasn't to say don't dream, but rather that a dream without a actionable plan of action is nothing but a worthless wish.
@thedarkhorse ... so true.. and lol, I love that saying... Never heard it before!
