When I initially recorded this episode on June 7, 2020, I spoke about viewing patience not as “wait time” but as an opportunity to improve ourselves in some capacity. In addition, I also spoke about patience as an opportunity to be productive while other events take their course that are outside of our control.
Earlier today (Wednesday, February 17, 2021), after coming across a post by Joel Daniels (@iamjoelleon) on Instagram that stated, "good things take time...and great things take a lot longer than good things do," the following thought came to mind:
Although being patient may cause for a “delay” in timing on our watch. Ultimately, under Universal watch, divine timing varies. Nonetheless, we do have influence over how we decide to allocate and spend our time in the present. Although we may have to practice patience, we can still continue to plan and prepare for what it is that we deem requires our patience until we reach the level of achievement we aspire to attain.

1:09 - When we can view patience not as “wait time” but as an opportunity to improve ourselves in some capacity, we then learn how to appreciate the art of patience.
1:43 - Just because we are waiting for something does not mean that we have to stop doing something else.
5:31 - When we are busy, we occupy time. When we are productive, we optimize time.
7:06 - Patience provides us with an opportunity to be productive while other events take their course that are outside of our control.

One assignment at a time. One day at a time!

To this day, I still remember being greeted with a hello and good morning from three employees at the front register.
Whether or not a customer has intentions on purchasing a product or service, a simple hello may aid in a potential transaction, a rewarding long-term relationship, or even helping to make someone’s day a little bit brighter.

After reading this poem, I was IMMEDIATELY inspired to write my own version of what I would consider to be a comeback and continuation of the scenario that took place in the poem.
As a result of what I read by Nikita, I decided to name my piece, “Finding a Reason to Step Into Our Being.”
