Sao Paulo: Persistent Patience
How do we balance persistence with patience? In this episode, I take you to the vibrant streets of São Paulo, reflecting on the tension between pushing forward and trusting the process.
This city, with its blend of chaos and calm, became the perfect backdrop to explore the quiet, unseen work that persistence demands and the growth that patience allows. Along the way, I dive into:
- Why persistence is about steady, intentional effort rather than dramatic breakthroughs.
- How fear and courage coexist and shape the way we move forward.
- The active nature of patience and why waiting is never wasted.
With moments of reflection inspired by São Paulo’s towering bamboo, its history, and even its drizzle, this episode invites you to reflect on your own journey. How do you find balance in the push and pull of life?
