You Already Know What to Do
Summary
- I often find that the advice I seek is about emotional strength rather than business strategy.
- It's important for me to practice patience, as doing the right thing often takes longer or is tougher than expected.
- A quote I love says that we need to be reminded more than we need to be taught.
- The future version of ourselves is there to offer reminders, not necessarily new lessons.

How To Take Action
I would suggest focusing on building emotional strength first. This is more about learning to wait and keep cool, even when stuff gets hard or takes longer than you thought. Here's a trick: think of a quote or saying that helps you stay strong and stick to it.
Here's one I love: "We need to be reminded more than we need to be taught." So remember, it's not always about learning new things. Sometimes you just need to be reminded of what you already know. Keep that in mind when you feel stuck or impatient.
Another good step is to imagine you in the future. What would the future you tell you to do right now? Chances are, they'd just remind you of what you already know, not give you a whole new lesson. Listen to those reminders.
So, how do you practice patience? Start with little things. Maybe when you're waiting in line, instead of getting upset, use that time to think about your goals. Turn waiting into planning time. Or when a plan takes longer to work, remember that it's normal and okay. Talking to friends or other folks who understand can help too.
Finally, make sure you're doing the right thing, even when it's tough. If you're not sure what the right thing is, ask for advice or think about what you'd tell a friend to do.
Patience isn't just waiting. It's keeping your head up and sticking to your plan, even when it's tempting to give up. That's how you grow strong, and that's what will make you and your business better in the long run.
