Everyday Wisdom #22

Give me patience

If you find yourself getting frustrated or short-tempered today, keep in mind the following quote:

“Patience is the companion of wisdom” ~ Saint Augustine

Repeat this quote as a mantra.  

Try combining it with your breathing for best results.

Even if the words don’t seem to have particular meaning for you, the very act of slowing down and deepening your breathing will help you to feel calmer.

 

Withhold an immediate response to a situation.

Instead, practice patience and allow the answer to become clearer.
