Patience

We all know it’s a great skill to possess when it’s appropriate.  When we recklessly speed ahead instead of slowing down and getting back in control, trouble usually follows.  I’ve noticed there’s one occurrence that gets us recklessly speeding ahead.  It’s when random events alter our best-laid plans.  Been happening to me my whole life, and probably you also.  Now, when these random events happen, instead of a knee jerk reaction of anger or fear, I use the skill of being patient to wait until I’m back in control.  When we use the skill of patience to stop us from following our anger and fear; our fight and flee genetics, and wait until we’re under control before we proceed, we win big time!
