★Do you believe that good things come to those who wait?

Generally, you need to go after the good things. Ir you wait for them, the good things might never get to you.

There's a difference between procrastination and patience. Procrastinating is avoiding responsibility....whereas patience is waiting for the right moment to live up to it. Good things don't always come to those who wait. But it does seem more like a blessing if there is a noticeable period of 'badness' first IMHO.

I believe things come to those who wait; bad or good, is relative to view one takes of what happens to them, and how they handle it.

As far as those who pursue a good thing, it will not "come" to them as they are pursuing it; rather, they come to it.

If the statement were true, "Good things happen to those who wait", then it would be safe to assume that waiting is a virtue, not procrastination. Waiting implies that you have done your share, and are now waiting for the return; procrastination implies, that you have not done your share, and are prolonging when you should start your share; thereby hoping that the longer you wait the less you will have to do eventually resulting in the good coming to greet you, as opposed to you doing the work to greet it.

Every situation is unique. Some warrant patience and little or no action, while others require immediate and relentless action. Sometimes, procrastination is indeed a virtue. Some things adequately resolve themselves without our intervention, no matter how much we might worry over the outcome. To reiterate: there is no "one size fits all" solution to everything.

Good things come to those who wait & procrastination can be a virtue.

Those who don't believe that have instant gratification.

It always depend son the situation

BQ-could be but if a person sits around waiting to be

saved they could lose the farm

Good things come to those who wait...except the precious time lost while waiting.

Depends, it always depends.

Like, I was just at Target department store. the shelf was empty of what I needed, I could have stood there till closing time waiting for a clerk to ask me "can I help you with something"? "it appears we are out of that on the shelf, let me take a look in the back for you."

So I had to take action in hunting down a clerk to take a look in the back for me for that product, and they were hesitant and NOT HAPPY when I asked so I even had to become assertive with them and I got my product.

wait for love? it appears that I just might be waiting for that till Death! but I will wait till then nonetheless, perhaps it will happen, perhaps not.

BQ: yes, it can be.

I think it's the exact opposite. Strike while the iron is hot and the early bird gets the worm.

If you are heading for what you want and working upon it, yes, there`s a real possibility;

but the phrase is often used as a platitude.
