Patience

What’s the benefit of practicing patience?

    • Great things take time:  If things happened instantly as soon as you dream it up it would be an interesting world and possibly chaotic.  The chances of you creating a million dollar business as soon as you open the doors is pretty slim.  It takes time and energy.  Just like a garden takes time to produce fruit, so do great things.  Patience.
    • Timing is everything:   Waiting for the right moment is important.   Sometimes running a promotion over a holiday is best.  Or have you ever wanted to ask your partner something like where you want to go on vacation?  There’s a right time and a wrong time to broach the subject.
    • Things get clearer with time:  Sometimes things are not entirely clear when you’re first introduced to an issue.  “Hindsight is 2020” Once a situation has passed and you look back everything seems so much more clear.  Take the time and stew on it for awhile and things become much more clear.
    • You make better decisions: Before making a life altering decision, “sleep on it” is wise advice.  When you have time to think about all your options and the best possible solution you tend to make the best decisions.
    • Your commitment to success is clear:  Staying the course, being patient means you get things done and make things happen.
