DO IT ACCORDING TO YOUR PACE

People called me timid 
Because I go slowly 
Moving step by step 
According to the 
Rhythms of nature 
Because I believe in
The law of balance.

I do my best then relax
I don't try to force things
I always go easy on me
Zechariah 4:6, not by might, 
Nor by power, but by thy spirit
Aggression births digression
Digression hinders progression.

Clarity yields results 
Self hostility hinder prosperity 
You're your own resolution 
Endow yourself with worth 
Not desperation for results 
Be determined with the process
Time is the ultimate guide
Do it according to your pace.

Pace is the path, speed only makes pace falter, you may stumble. Take time and pace is right you find yor path is there.
You're absolutely right... Thanks for your words.
