This is perhaps one of the most beneficial points (out of many) that you make.
Yes, faith in outcome is necessary. Belief that you've already achieved that makes it happen.
But "witthout insisting" is vital. Have an idea of what you want or how you want your life to be but never detail it too much. Doing that locks your progress to what you think it should be, rather than allowing your trust, faith in the Universe, the ALL, What IS, God, etc. to bring you what you want in the way that is best for you.
