Detach From the Outcome
One of the common traits of ADD, is a lack of patience. Patience in a virtue, an age old saying most people have heard. Most people in general, want the end result or outcome to occur right now!
Like many others, when we seek change we get caught up in the outcome too often. It’s kind of like putting the apple cart before the horse. We can’t get to the outcome until we take the necessary steps to get there. That natural tendency to become impatient and want the outcome to happen kicks in for so many people. Suddenly, many people find themselves trying to force an outcome, too soon. When we force the outcome, our actions usually force results that are incomplete. As an example, if you rush through a task to get to the outcome, chances are you will take a short cut and make a mistake. The end result, a forced outcome with less than expected results.
This tendency to force an outcome holds true in every aspect of our lives, whether it be friendship, love, work or the simplest task around the house. We all need to detach from the outcome, exercise some patience and focus on the required steps to achieve the outcome we set as a goal. If we all remove the outcome from the process, the steps we take along the way should deliver the outcome you desire.
