Gratitude Eases Impatience
by Michael Feeley
SOMETIMES WE’RE IMPATIENT to get things done, impatient with others we need and count on.
Getting packages delivered – scheduling yard care regularly – finishing a project and meeting a deadline – waiting for a payment of money to clear.
We must accept that some things take time – that there is a waiting process to be respected.
Gratitude helps ease impatience – focusing on the good things in your life and the world that are working well for you –
being grateful for what you already have.
Gratitude creates calmness.
Gratitude counters irritation – restlessness – agitation – anger – frustration.
Gratitude and impatience are behaviors and feelings.
We can choose patience and gratitude over impatience and irritation.
How necessary is your impatience, and what is the purpose of your impatience?
