Epictetus : Great Things & Figs

Download MP3!

"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?
