“Timing, perseverance, and ten years of trying will eventually make you look like an overnight success”
— Biz Stone
Simplified Meaning:
When you see someone suddenly becoming very successful, it often looks like it happened quickly or easily. But in reality, it usually took them a lot of time and hard work to get there. They might have spent years practicing, learning, and working on their skills. For example, a famous author might write many books that nobody notices before one becomes a bestseller. It's the same for athletes who spend countless hours training before winning a big competition. This means that being patient and never giving up, even when it takes a long time, is key to achieving your big goals. If you stay dedicated and keep working, your efforts will eventually pay off, and others might then see you as an instant success even though it took a long journey to get there.
