Patience is something I’ve never been good at, but over time, I’ve learned that urgency is required for urgent things or for items that can be jeopardized by stalling. And as age/wisdom teaches us that some things need patience, we get more patient.
But acting, re-acting and pushing things forward is my primary tendency.
I wonder what the percentages are regarding who is patient and who isn’t – who is like me and who is opposite me.
Waiting indefinitely as the world turns is one thing, but waiting for a deadline to arrive or for a certain number of days to pass – I’ve never been comfortable with that.
I know I need more patience and less procrastination, less time per task, and more time to think – not sure if this is something to be managed, strategized or just accepted as the way I am.
