# Keep a Small Flame Alive by Bryant McGill > “If you have given up on a dream, keep a small flame alive. A new partner, technology, idea, or season may appear months or years later, and a dream that was set aside rather than abandoned can still be revived. Patience keeps more dreams alive than force ever could.” > **— Bryant McGill**, *Faith, Resilience, and Building Through Failure - Livestream (Oct 2018)* ## Sources and Context - **Source:** [[livestreams/Faith, Resilience, and Building Through Failure - Livestream|Faith, Resilience, and Building Through Failure - Livestream]] — exact quotation from the dated developed livestream document (2018-10-27). ## Related Articles and Collections - **Collection:** [[collections/Simple Reminders|Simple Reminders]] - **Article:** [[articles/simple reminders/Your Future Begins with Your Next Thought|Your Future Begins with Your Next Thought]] - **Livestream:** [[livestreams/Faith, Resilience, and Building Through Failure - Livestream|Faith, Resilience, and Building Through Failure - Livestream]] ## Related Topics - [[wiki/Hope|Hope]] ## Share on Social Media ``` “If you have given up on a dream, keep a small flame alive.
