short poem about choosing growth again and again

open hand in a field with poem title 'the art of becoming' - mao

written to inspire confidence and action, this poem shows that your potential is limitless.
hold trust in yourself, stay consistent, and take each step towards the life you desire.

“the art of becoming”

never stop learning,
always improve your skills.
life is about growth,
and doing what fulfils.

chase what brings you joy,
continue with your purpose.
you’ll accomplish more than you think,
even if it makes you nervous.

people are quick to settle,
even when it’s less.
and even knowing deep down,
they’re destined for success.

we’re our main limitation,
though we don’t like to admit.
belief and consistency is key,
trust yourself and commit.

if only we weren’t impatient,
and let our creativity flow.
if only we held faith,
see what the world has to show.

but many people won’t,
and it’s not because they can’t.
they just don’t wait for the seed,
to turn into a plant.

you see, a plant takes its time,
you have to be willing to wait.
and, if you do just that,
see the magic you create.

so now that i have told you,
the power already lies in your hands.
each step you take will shape what’s true,
and lead you to the life you planned.
