PATIENCE-vs- IMPATIENCE

“Patience can’t be acquired overnight. It is just like
building up a muscle. Every day you need to work on it.”
- - Eknath Easwaran
A couple acronyms that might help by SG:

QTIP: Quit Taking It Personally

THINK: Is it- Thoughtful, Honest, Intelligent, Necessary, Kind

Like these and the quote by SG. Patience is still something I need to work on today, which is almost 3 years later. It just goes to show, that the program is one day at a time. I dealt with patience yesterday, and had to bring it out and address it again today, when I got impatient with others.

As they say, it is generally because I am not getting my own way, or that someone dare to disagree with me. LOL! Maybe I need to do a Step 10 on this, but I just know I was right and waiting for the specialist to affirm my belief so I can say,
"I told you so and you didn't listen to me.!"
