#380 Great Things & Figs
Inspired by: EpictetusDiscuss this Big Idea in the Forums!
"No great thing is created suddenly, any more than a bunch of grapes or a fig. If you tell me that you desire a fig, I answer you that there must be time. Let it first blossom, then bear fruit, then ripen."
~ Epictetus from The Enchiridion
How brilliant is that?!?
My hunch is we share a passion to bring things to life NOW!!
I love the reminder that all great things take time…
What do you need to allow to blossom, bear fruit and then ripen?

There are times to let things happen, and times to make things happen. Now is that time. You will either make things happen, watch what happens, or wonder what happened.
