mind relationships spirit Oct 15, 2021

Ever lose your temper too often or become impatient in the moments that matter most?

Well, you are not alone. 

In a world where impatience is endemic, you will stand out when you build the skill of patience. 

Watch this video to understand the root cause of impatience and three science-backed strategies to help you tap into your best self.  

Intentional Action

1. Reading

Research consistently shows the stress-reducing benefits of reading: less stress, more patience

2. Meditation

Impatience stems from fear, and mediation strengthens the connection between our rational centre (prefrontal cortex) and our fear centre (amygdala)

3. Listening

You switch off your internal chatter when you listen without judgment, which is a key driver for impatience.

Commit today to place more focus on non-judgemental listening.

Character challenge

Forgiveness

Forgiveness consistently shows a statistically significant reduction in anger and, therefore, impatience.
