“You get the chicken by hatching the egg, not by smashing it.”

— Arnold H. Glasow

Do we all lose our patience at times? Of course.

Here are some reasons why we might not be patient:

  • Having a short attention span
  • People moving too slowly or differently than you
  • Too many tasks to carry out
  • Wanting instant gratification
  • Being unhealthy or having an illness

How might you become a more patient person? Or how might we regain your composure quicker?

Being patient takes self-control, it’s up to you. Our response to others matters most.

“It’s cool that this tension is building up, because it’s gotta find its release in the music,” Axl says backstage.

How will you let your patience prevail?

I hope you enjoy this song about patience:
