Purpose Wastes Nothing
You're being waaaay too hard on yourself, Friend.

When things feel slow or your season of waiting feels long, step back and get an eagle’s eye view of what’s happening. The eagle doesn’t stop hunting for food because the prey escapes his grasp. He patiently uses his journey to teach him the terrain so when opportunity comes, he’s ready.
