The world is always on the move and everyone want to catch up with the trends. It's a beautiful thing to flow along, but is there a place for patience? At some point in life, do we need to hold on a bit? Is it everything that's not working that should be abandoned for the next option? Let's brainstorm together.
Lack of patience can cause us a fortune
It's natural to feel depressed when things aren't working out as planned. For instance, in the business world the market flow could be very unpredictable. Take a look at prices of cryptocurrencies now. Impatience will make many people lose their fortune. They'll rush to sell, only to wake up next hour and see the price going up ten times what they sold.
In the area of career, impatience has taken some people into studying the wrong course, because they couldn't wait to get enrolled in their desired field.
In the area of marriage, impatience has made people get married to beasts in human form. They couldn't wait for the right partner, so they took the next available one. The aftermath of such is story for another day.
Everywhere is filled with people, not patient enough to wait for the best. The little minutes more count a lot and most people miss it.
I came across a video here of a lady going to propose to a guy that's not even ready to marry. Her impatience did not allow her make findings first before taking a step in the midst of crowd of people. Imagine the embarrassments, disappointments, tears, disgrace and depression of rejection that comes when we don't wait for the right time.
Age does not determine the right time, maturity of the mind does. It's disastrous to step out for anything we aren't mentally matured and ready to handle. Why must we rush for something that would be more beneficial if we took our time! It's vain to achieve anything that brings pains and emotional separation from your loved ones. It's vain to be rich and not happy. It's vain to make headlines, yet depressed in your closet. What is life, if we are not happy about what we got.
Impatience plagues us into lack of fulfillment.
Waiting a minute more might just be all we need to live happy and fulfilled.
Take a moment and think about the things your rushed for in the past. Think back on the things that once gave you sleepless nights.
Try to remember the times you thought your life is meaningless if you don't achieve what you achieved years ago. Remember the friendships you discarded because they didn't support your rush syndrome. Now, look at those things you rushed to acquire, is there any excitement about them today?
The achievements are great, but a little patience might open our eyes to better options. Life is too shot to live in accumulating what are not necessary.
Let us be patient and wait a little more for the best!
