Inspired by my good friend, Isaiah Rogers, in this episode of Love + Ambition: A Digital Diary, I talk about appreciating the art and practice of patience. 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.

Love + Ambition: A Digital Diary is all about sharing my mission to promote positivity in an effort to uplift the condition of humanity.

My experience in business, education, media, and music has made me who I am today. As a result, through sharing my experiences, insights, and learnings, I hope to encourage and inspire others to do the same as we all aspire towards becoming the greatest version of ourselves.
