Are you facing a situation that looks impossible to fix?
In1969, the pollution was terrible along the Cuyahoga River near Cleveland, Ohio. It was unimaginable that it could ever be cleaned up. The river was so(pollute) that it actually caught fire and burned. Now years later, this river is one of the most outstanding(example) of environmental cleanup.
But the river wasn't changed in a few days even a few months. It took years of work (reduce) the industrial pollution and clean the water. Finally, that hard work (pay) off and now the water in the river is cleaner than ever.
Maybe you are faced an impossible situation. Maybe you have a habit is driving your family crazy. Possibly you drink too much or don't know how to control your credit card use. When you face such an (likely) situation, don't you want a quick fix and something to change immediately?
While there are (amazing) interesting stories of instant transformation, for most of us the changes are gradual and require a lot of effort and work, like cleaning up a polluted river. Just have(patient).
