We're always waiting for things to be fulfilled, for the job to be over, for good news to arrive, or for our long wait to be over, for our needs to be met. As a Zen Master saw his driven students, pushing and striving for results, he always said to them, "Not Yet." However much they strained and hoped, he always simply shook his head and said, "Not yet." Some took this to mean they were failures, would never make the grade. But that's not it. There's a wonderful secret to this remark, and once we discover it, so much pressure and futile efforting disappears on its own. And to our amazement, when we run into the Zen Master, he won't say Not Yet again.
