Patience, my friend!

Patience is something that majority of us lack these and is one the virtues that our ancestors possessed which definitely had its perks. With growing technology and ease of connectivity  , there is less that one has to strive for and hence forget losing patience, we do not have it in the first place. Now do we think about such things? Well it is true that in today’s fast paced   world, everyone requires everything on the go. But there is no end to this and one needs to cultivate patience to become a stronger and better individual in the long run. Patience is an enormous art and can heal diseases and serious life threatening issues. If is of utmost importance that one develops patience to such a level that you are entirely self contained and external factors don’t work on you.

This is one of the therapies advised by leading health and medical institutions and also the Chinese Monks, Dalai Lama etc , this is what keeps them on track. Compare a person with patience and someone who is agitated and the former is way beyond reach. And the best part is patience is also cultivated by having patience and any man can reach there provided he works upon himself in a conscious manner.

Now having said this, where are we to start from? 

-Stay away from your phone

Will the world come to an end if you do not attend to your phone for a while?

-Fall in love with nature

There is nothing that can get better than living and appreciating the pulchritude of nature

-Read Classics

Fall in love with literature and notice the different you.

-Deal with procrastination

Wake up Sid

-Interact more with your loved ones.

Why do we so often forget them and our remniscient times?

"If you think adventure is dangerous, try out patience. It is Lethal"

Calm Down

We are so busy running to achieve our goals   , dreams that we miss out on the basic things provided by life. We ignore people   , think a great deal of ourselves and only constantly ponder about what we want in life. I think all us need to calm down at some point and just let go. Relax. At times we just need to switch off our minds. Keeping on thinking will not take us anywhere beyond a point and will only create frustration. So we need to essentially chill. Meditation is a huge source of mental stability but it’s sad that although most of us know the medicinal value of meditation, only a chosen few practice it.

It’s perfectly alright to let go off certain things. But an adequate action is needed.

If you hate your job- Leave it (Of course you will be worried about what next, but again, calm down. Something will follow through).

If you don’t like studying- don’t (It’s ok not to do well in every exam)

Sadly, we are always playing a dual role between what we want and what is expected from us and hence we’re always thinking and planning and executing and are being greedy. But If we just go about what we want to do and relax, life will on the whole become so much more easier. At the end of the day, what matters is how stable we are in the long run. Though many wont think so now, but we don’t want to be guilty for what we should have done now  10 years later. Also the power of habit essentially comes into play here. People must not work hard but hardly work. We must cultivate this habit since an early age and then studies, jobs, adversities in life everything will just flow smoothly and we can enjoy essentially the things that we love …take a walk, swim, stroll around …and Calm Down because there’s never a The end to anything.
