The quest took you 5 years!!! That's the price you pay for such a big achievement. It takes patience and self determination to attain that. And scheduling and timing is key to help push you through that journey. This I have experience in as lots of my work is on a computer in designing different projects. I have to always have great timing since no one is around to push me. And clients always need their work on time. This is where discipline in calculating your time now come in.
Am glad you got successful in your journey. I personally I haven't reached where I want to be yet.. And your 5 year wait has inspired me to continue fighting hard till i get there.
Thanks for reminding us of patience @cryptoctopus
