No Instant Success Poem by Sandra Feldman

No Instant Success

Rating: 4.8


We want instant gratification
For everything we do.
Well, it doesn't work that way
We must chip away at what we do,
Patiently, Carefully, with Love,
To be able to reach farther
For one step taken on a ladder,
Does not get you to the top.

Yes, there is no short cut to success and getting to the top is not an easy cake walk! One has to toil untiringly and with patience. Just one step on a ladder never takes one to the top... One has to climb rung by rung! A very pragmatic view of life put beautifully!
