Are you in a situation where you have been putting in effort, but it hasn't been yielding the results you desire? Are you now running out of patience and considering giving up on the pursuit?

Let me tell you a popular story about Adab, a farmer who was on a mission to cut down a gigantic tree in the forest with his axe.

He took his axe and began to swing at the tree with all his might. With each swing, he made a small dent in the tree's trunk, but the tree stood tall, unshaken.

Hours passed, and still, the tree stood strong, seemingly unaffected by the Adab's efforts. In fact, other farmers thought he was wasting his time and told him to give up and go home.

However, Adab despite growing tired and weary, refused to give up. He was on a mission, and he had to complete it.

In his mind, he had already seen the tree fall flat; it was only a matter of time before what he had envisioned became a reality in the earthly realm.

Adab persisted, and finally, after what seemed like an eternity of effort, he delivered one last powerful blow with his axe and the tree fell flat.

Each strike weakened the tree until it could no longer stand tall against the force of Adab's mission and determination.

Every day you show up for your vision with determination, you give that tree a strike, and best believe it's coming down soon!
