It`s my birthday this weekend, reminding me of how fast time goes by. I feel like I cannot keep up at all. On the other hand, time brings some good stuff like progress, growth, and knowledge.<\/p>\n<h3>&#8220;If your goal is the time itself&#8230;&#8221;<\/h3>\n<p>However, I sometimes struggle to see my progress and I often don`t give myself credit for it. Or I become impatient. In this context I`m reminded about something that I\u2019 ve heard in a conversation with street photographer Brandon Stanton (Humans of NY) on the podcast &#8220;Magic Lessons with Elisabeth Gilbert&#8221;. \u00a0He said that many goals depend on stuff we can`t control, for example, whether people like our work or not. \u201cBut if your goal is the time itself, just the time, then it becomes much simpler and more achievable. Because it depends on one thing: How you spend your time.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2>Focus on the time<\/h2>\n<p>Success then isn`t the result, but the time spent with the work. Brandon Stanton suggests not to focus on a result like \u2018I want to be a successful photojournalist\u2019 or \u2018I want to be a bestselling author\u2019. We shouldn`t take a goal that is out of our control as a benchmark for success.<\/p>\n<p>Instead, he advises to rather focus on the time we spend on the way. For example: &#8220;I spend one hour every morning to write&#8221;, or: &#8220;I take some time photographing every day.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h2>A gentle approach to success<\/h2>\n<p>As someone who struggles with competitive situations and who is easily intimidated by expectations or having to achieve things, I love this. It seems like a sustainable and somewhat gentle approach to success.<\/p>\n<p>I still don`t know how to feel ok about aging. But I know what I can do meanwhile: valuing time I spend on things, rather than being anxious about the result. And have faith that there will be some good progress eventually and that God will take care of the outcome.<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"664\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/nadinewilmanns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/nadine_pics.for_.the_.gram-Web.Export-154.jpg?resize=1000%2C664&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"time and progress fashion memories watch and wristlet\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/nadinewilmanns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/nadine_pics.for_.the_.gram-Web.Export-154.jpg?w=1000&amp;ssl=1 1000w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/nadinewilmanns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/nadine_pics.for_.the_.gram-Web.Export-154.jpg?resize=300%2C199&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/nadinewilmanns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/nadine_pics.for_.the_.gram-Web.Export-154.jpg?resize=768%2C510&amp;ssl=1 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<h2>Zeit und Wachstum<\/h2>\n<p>Zeit ist eine schwierige Angelegenheit. Dieses Wochenende ist mein Geburtstag und erinnert mich daran, wie schnell die Zeit vergeht. Ich habe das Gef\u00fchl, dass ich \u00fcberhaupt nicht mithalten kann. Andererseits bringt Zeit auch gute Sachen, wie Entwicklung, Wachstum und Wissen.<\/p>\n<h2>&#8220;Wenn dein Ziel die Zeit selbst ist&#8230;&#8221;<\/h2>\n<p>Allerdings f\u00e4llt es mir oft schwer, meine Fortschritte zu sehen und anzuerkennen. Oder ich werde ungeduldig. In dem Zusammenhang f\u00e4llt mir etwas ein, das ich in einem Gespr\u00e4ch mit Fotograf Brandon Stanton (Humans of NY) im Podcast &#8220;Magic Lessons with Elisabeth Gilbert&#8221;\u00a0geh\u00f6rt habe.<\/p>\n<p>Er sagt, dass viele Ziele von Dingen abh\u00e4ngig sind, die nicht in unserer Hand sind. Zum Beispiel ob Leute unsere Arbeit m\u00f6gen oder nicht. \u201eAber wenn die Zeit selbst das Ziel ist, nur die Zeit, dann wird alles viel einfacher und machbarer. Denn der Erfolg h\u00e4ngt dann von einer Sache ab: Wie ich meine Zeit verbringe.\u201c<\/p>\n<h2>Erfolgsfaktor Zeit<\/h2>\n<p>Erfolg ist dann nicht das Endergebnis, sondern Zeit mit der Arbeit selbst verbracht zu haben.<\/p>\n<p>Brandon Stanton schl\u00e4gt vor, sich nicht so sehr auf ein Endziel (wie \u201aIch will ein erfolgreicher Fotojournalist sein\u2018, oder: \u201aIch will einen Bestseller schreiben.\u2018) zu konzentrieren.<\/p>\n<p>Statt Erfolg an einem Ziel messen, das wir nicht kontrollieren k\u00f6nnen, r\u00e4t er, uns lieber auf die Zeit und den Weg dahin zu konzentrieren. Zum Beispiel \u201aIch will jeden morgen eine Stunde schreiben\u2018 , oder: \u201aIch nehme mir jeden Tag Zeit zum Fotografieren.\u2018<\/p>\n<h2>Eine nachhaltige Einstellung zum Erfolg<\/h2>\n<p>Als jemand, der Konkurrenzsituationen nicht mag und der sich leicht von Erwartungen und Erfolgsdenken einsch\u00fcchtern l\u00e4sst, mag ich diese Herangehensweise. Es scheint mir eine nachhaltige und irgendwie sanfte Einstellung zum Erfolg zu sein.<\/p>\n<p>Ich wei\u00df immer noch nicht, wie man mit dem Altern gut klarkommt. Aber ich wei\u00df, was ich inzwischen tun kann: Die Zeit zu sch\u00e4tzen, die ich mit Dingen verbringen, anstatt mich mit Gedanken \u00fcber das Ergebnis zu stressen. Und darauf vertrauen, dass ich Fortschritte mache und Gott den Rest schon f\u00fcr mich machen wird.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How to validate your progress. &#8220;&#8230;But if your goal is the time itself, just the time, then it becomes much simpler and more achievable&#8230;\u201d<\/p>","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":3909,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","ast-disable-related-posts":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"default","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[48,393],"tags":[183,182,146,180,148,72,171,153,173,151,60,150,152],"post_folder":[],"class_list":["post-2234","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-blog","category-business-creativity","tag-creativejob","tag-creativelife","tag-creativity","tag-freelancelife","tag-freelancer","tag-mindset","tag-photoblog","tag-photographer","tag-photographyblog","tag-progress","tag-success","tag-time","tag-writer"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Time and progress &#8902; Nadine Wilmanns &#8902; Blog<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"On my blog, I write about fashion, photography, and creative freelancing.
