Not Just Overnight

No success happen overnight, or in a week, or in a month. It takes time, planning, and hard work. The distant observer may see an overnight success, that is only from their perspective.

A lot of life is learning what does not work, before what does work. Think about Thomas Edison, the inventor of the light bulb. Mr. Edison had more failures before he found what would work.

Moses, the most memorable individual in the Old Testament was in his 60's before leading the children of Israel over the Red Sea. He spent a lot of time in the desert, learning what works and what does not work.

In this age of information, learning can be done a lot faster. But it still does not happen overnight. The 20, or 30 something individual with a successful career, starts in their teens, if not younger.
