Patience
is the art of hoping. – Luc de Clapier
Patience is the companion of wisdom. –
Augustine of Hippo
Patience
has never been my strongest quality and I can assure you that waiting on dreams
to come true requires patience. At this
point in my life, patience is being greatly developed in me!
Through
this time of developing my patience, I have learned a lot and know I will have many
more opportunities to grow and develop my patience. Joyce Meyer said:
Patience is not the ability to wait but how
you act while you’re waiting.
This
statement is so true. We have the choice
how we will wait. Things take time to
happen no matter how hard you are working.
During those waiting times, it is important to have the right attitude
and have the right mindset to develop patience.
Why is
it important to be patient and enjoy this opportunity of waiting? This quote should give us all hope of why
patience will pay off in the long run:
When things don’t happen right away just
remember it takes 6 months to build a Rolls-Royce and 13 hours to build a
Toyota. - Unknown
CHALLENGE: How are you
waiting…patiently or as a spastic individual hoping things change
immediately? Depending on your answer, what
changes can you make in your life to have a more peaceful and patient time of
waiting?
Next week, Terri’s Tuesday Tip of the Week will discuss what
to do during the waiting periods where your patience is developing.
So good & true!!! How you wait determines your experience during your waiting period. You can either drown yourself in pity or approach it boldness & know that at some point the waiting ends. When your waiting period is over, your attitude will impact how you will seize your next opportunity. One of my friends recently asked me, "will you be ready when you get what you've always been hoping for?" If we focus on the wait, there's no way possible to be ready for the next level!
