well-fed friday: good things come.

September 21, 2012 — 13 Comments

I was with my hair stylist the other day and we got to talking about hard work. We both agreed that whoever came up with the phrase, “Good things come to those who wait,” was full of it. I saw this quote and I laughed because it represents our sentiments exactly.

good things come to those who work

The funny part is, I’m pretty sure I used to use this quote. In my head it made sense that if you keep on trying, eventually it will come back around to you. But, the truth is, there is no waiting. You can’t wait for things you want to happen – you have to make them happen. You have to keep on keepin’ on and force things to come back to you. Waiting just isn’t part of the equation.

P.S. Hi! I still exist, I’m here. :) My life has stopped and taken an incredible turn and I can’t wait to share every ounce of it with you. Until then, I’ll be working my ass off – never giving up.

I mentioned to you before how much I really wanted to do it and reading some of your well-fed friday messages helped my motivation to keep after what I really wanted to do: share my love for food. Thanks again!!

    Hi Sarah! I can’t wait to hear what good things are happening for you. I am with you – I used to always say, “Good Things Come to Those Who Wait” but I think the real thing is, “Good Things Come to Those who Do Hard Work and Have Patience”. xoxoxo

    hi Sarah!

    “Never give up” is one of the inspiring quotation for my whole life & i believe that it is the real part of life. Whatever we want or dream, we have to work real hard to make it happen to enjoy the shinny part of life.

    Thanks for the nice post :-)
