Patience?… what for?!

Patience.

What does it mean to a person that doesn’t even know what it is? When I was 3 I can tell you that I probably had more patience that I do now at 23. It’s a lack of focus. At age 3 I wanted candy or cartoons and I had to listen, sit down or be quiet to get what I wanted.. Simple stuff.

Now that I am a young adult my focus has changed from just sitting down, to never sitting down, always on the go trying to catch up with the rest of the world.

If we were all moving at once, the earth would get dizzy.

How do you measure the patience to build a product, practice a career, or pumping gas for the 4th time this week while thinking of ten different ways this could be faster.

Patience is a drug we all don’t get the prescription to. But until we’re diagnosed with self awareness, then we realize how important time is (and isn’t) and so on.

Patience.
