Achieve goals

LONG-TERM PERSPECTIVE



Never underestimate the power of time. In an hour it may seem like you're making little progress, but look at what you can achieve in months! The continuous effort is paying off.

The secret of progress lies not in the speed of an hour, but in the perseverance of many months.

The power of time: Emily’s story

Hey, imagine you’re working on a puzzle and just can’t manage to put the right pieces together. You’re stuck. You feel like you’re not making any progress. That’s how Emily felt at first when she began her dream of learning a language.

One day, Emily decided to learn French. She had always dreamed of spending a semester abroad in Paris and wanted to prepare herself for this adventure. On her first day with a language app, she did 15 minutes of exercises and hardly noticed a difference. “I’m hardly making any progress in an hour,” she thought disappointedly.

But instead of giving up, Emily set herself the goal of practicing consistently every day. Sometimes it was only 10 minutes, on other days maybe a full hour. The days became weeks, and the weeks became months.

After six months, something amazing happened: at a meeting with a French exchange student, Emily had an almost fluent conversation. She hadn’t even realized how much she had actually learned during this time!

What can we learn from Emily’s story?

Start small: It’s okay to start with small steps. The most important thing is to remain consistent.
Continuity is the key: instead of having occasional periods of intensive study, try to invest time in your goal every day.
Look back: Stop occasionally and look back to see how far you have come.

The truth is that in a single hour or even a day, progress may seem minimal. But don’t give up! The accumulation of all these “small” advances leads to astonishing results over time.

So, no matter what goal you are pursuing, always remember: it is not the individual hour that counts, but the continuous effort over days, weeks and months. Keep at it and you’ll be surprised what you can achieve!
