LIFE LESSONS FROM A JIGSAW PUZZLE
My son and I recently worked on a jigsaw puzzle and we ran into a few difficulties. The pieces didn't seem to fit together correctly and it was hard to see the completed picture.
This story is all too familiar. You set your mind to accomplish a goal, but the process gets tough and you give up before even reaching completion.
Many people give up on their dreams and goals because they grew frustrated with the process.
It is easy to become discouraged when you don't see results immediately or when the going gets tough. But if you want to achieve your dreams, you have to be patient and persevere through difficult times.
We didn't give up; we kept trying for days and eventually we finished the puzzle. What a joy we shared that day.
Just like in life, you will encounter obstacles and challenges but if you don't give up, you will eventually find success. Don't give up on your dreams; keep pushing forward until you reach your goal.
Remember, finding your purpose in life is a journey, not a destination.
