The tortoise and the hare

 

Excerpt from the Manifesting Abundance Home Study manual

 

The journey you’re about to embark upon is not the hundred yard dash, it’s a marathon.

You may be tempted to valiantly launch into re-inventing yourself, taking all the processes in this course and “hit the ground running”.

Here’s a very important tip. While you will undoubtedly be pleasantly surprised at how fast your experience begins to change remember that this is a journey and you will only see lasting results as you continue to implement these steps day after day.

Remember the story of the tortoise and the hare. Both competed against each other in a long distance race. When the starting gun sounded the hare flashed off the starting line leaving the tortoise in a cloud of dust. The tortoise began a slow steady lumbering gait, inching along.

As the race progressed the hare began to tire, his breathtaking speed he started with was quickly waning. The tortoise that was only a distance speck on the horizon was getting closer and closer. The hare summoned up any last bit of energy he had left but very quickly was gasping for air and stumbling along the race circuit. Whenever he glanced back the image of the tortoise was getting larger and larger.

Finally the two were neck and neck. The hare, now totally spent, stumbled and fell in a heap. The tortoise seemed to not even notice as he continued the same lumbering pace he began the race with.

As you know, only one racer crossed the finish line that day. The old adage that “slow and steady wins the race” applies wonderfully to the process of manifesting your desires.

Know that you will only see the full fruits of your efforts as you apply them over and over and over.  Develop a set of practices that you will be able to maintain in the long run.

Tortoises become fantastic manifestors. Hares do not.

Are you ready? Let’s begin.
