I’ve had to make lots of telephone calls and answer e-mails today. When doing anything significant, the likelihood is you’re going to be dealing with other people and….
…They don’t want what you want as much as you do.
So, we are patient – not in terms of time – but in terms of approach.
Anger solves nothing, shouting down the phone gets you nowhere, anger separates, patience elevates.
Also remember, do you want to be the person that feels the anger you direct at others. Are you so perfect? Are any of us?
With the loss of religion in our society, we have lost a great trait that goes with patience and that is humility, dignity too and let’s throw in grace for good measure.
You and I both know that violence, aggression, destruction never actually work in the end. Again, why patience is important. You, just like I, want to do everything all in the one go and immediately.
Neh!
Be productive, be effective, be efficient but do it in the spirit of love.
