Before you continue, please read the Disclaimer . Patience is the ability to wait for an outcome, instead of insisting on having that outcome at once. Patience is the ability to bide your time while all the forces that you cannot control align themselves to help you accomplish what you, by yourself, cannot do. I can't think of a better way to describe patience. Patience is simple, but it's not easy.
Patience is a challenge to master because at first it feels as if it's going against our nature.
But the opposite is closer to the truth. Patience, when mastered, is one of the skills most conducive to fulfilling our nature. Our nature as human beings is to create our way of life. There is no more powerful tool for that job than patience. Our greatest achievements are accomplished over time, with considerable dedication and perseverance.
