External progress is often an overflow of internal work. People will congratulate and celebrate your achievements, often as if it happened quickly, when in reality it took years of commitment and dedication to growth and consistency that no one ever saw or recognized. Invisible progress are the intangibles. How you handle your attitude, commitment, leadership, responses. Success is far more than monetary. Define your own timeline and remember that the progress behind-the-scenes may be quiet, but it's steadiness will speak volumes in time.
