Practice of Patience

 


  Let's take a seat back together, what are the main qualities we need to inculcate to be successful at work or in life? Yes, hard work and reliability are some of them. However, one quality that is more important but not quite often discussed is patience. 

  Patience is our ability to wait without becoming upset, annoyed, or angry. It's about self-control rather than lashing out and complaining. When one is patient, one is calmer and more open to changes. Patience is a virtue, but it's not always easy to do. Let's say, we all want instant gratification and want things without waiting. That means we have very little patience.

  If we understand the importance of patience, we understand of being patient tries to stay calm and focused even in situations where waiting is not easy. This is why patience is an important life skill. It can lead to transforming our relationships, potential, and peace. In this article, let's talk about how to practice patience.

  Make yourself wait. The best way to practice is willing to make yourself wait. According to a study, waiting for things actually makes us happier in the long run. To get started, try something small like waiting a few extra minutes to stand in the queue at a shopping centre. You will begin to gain more patience as you practice. 

  Focus on important things. We all have a lot of things in our lives that take time away from what is important. This can relieve the stress from our lives if we stop doing things that are not important. Look at the daily schedule, if you don't have one take out two or three things that are not important. It's time to learn to say no to things that cause stress and make us impatient.

  Relax dan take deep breaths. Above all, just take relax and take deep breaths. Taking slow deep breaths can help calm the mind and body. This is the easiest way to help ease any impatient feelings you are experiencing. if that doesn't help, have a walk outside to clear your mind, and helpful in getting focused back on what's important. 

  Patience is sometimes called the mother of all virtues. It is very difficult to practice at first, but if we believe in patience will be easy to achieve. It is time we all slow down and practice a little more patience. We would be less stressed, calmer, and more mindful of the things that stress us out. Worth trying, isn't it? 

Thank you for your time and as always have a nice day 😀.

About Phubbing

    In the Digital Era, smartphones have become the number one priority in society. When it comes to our smartphones, nothing else in our lives gets as much attention. A single notification can branch to half days only checking the status or short videos on social media. If we lose it, the stress starts to build up rapidly. Getting by without a smartphone really is not possible anymore, and from that other areas of our lives are bound to be affected.   Phubbing describes the act of "phone-snubbing". It is a term that most people might not be familiar with, but the action is certainly one we all recognise. If we are going outside let's say, how often have we been physically in the presence of someone, but they're emotionally "not there" because they are absorbed in their smartphone?

The power of telekinesis has captured the imagination of scientists, psychics, and fiction writers for centuries unproven by science.   So what is the definition of telekinesis? Telekinesis or psychokinesis refers to the alleged ability to move objects with the power of the mind or willpower, without physical interaction.   Telekinesis is from the Greek words, tele means "distant" and kinesis means "movement".
