Patience

Being patient is something that I really struggle with. I believe it has to do in part with my age. At 22, one year is a much bigger percentage of life than it will be as a 42 year and 2 years will make a bigger percent of life at 42 than at 62.

That’s just how it is, that’s how the math breaks down. I want to know things and the uncertainty of how my life will play out causes me tension and that tension turns into impatience, and lack of patience turns into anxiety and short term thinking.

The unknown remains unknown and the timeline of my life will remain anonymous until I actually experience it. So therefor, my lack of patience is more of a waste of emotional energy. I’m looking to use that energy on something more positive and enjoy the process that is life, not dissecting it before the process even happens.
