Patience-A Precious Quality

 To lead a life in a positive way demands a lot from us. These include many human qualities and one of these is patience. It means the capacity to accept or tolerate delay, problems, or suffering without becoming annoyed or anxious. Patience-A Precious Quality helps us to make our lives good to best and leads toward success in life. 

Patience is a quality required in all phases of life. It is crucial

to be patient in different situations in life like at the times of sorrows or grieves, at the time of waiting for a long time, in difficult economic conditions, in joblessness and in sickness. If we pass this stressful time with patience, it becomes somewhat easy to tolerate. Patience improves your ability to accept setbacks and enjoy life much more. There is a saying; “Good things come to those who wait.” Patience allows you to persevere and make more productive decisions, often leading to greater success in coming life.

It is important to improve ourselves in patience by doing:

1. Practice mindfulness by being in the present moment, remaining calm without showing stress or annoyance.
2. Practice accepting our current circumstances with a positive struggle to improve the condition. 
3. Actively build a tolerance for being a bit uncomfortable with acceptance of the negative circumstances with prayers for betterment.
4. When we're feeling bad, consciously slow down our level of stress and discomfort by doing something else to break our level of stress. 
5. Be playful by doing something interesting. To make us happy, though for some time.

The patient people are those who usually remain calm, try to be forgiving, show tolerance, be gentle and quiet. They try to be in the present moment and are accommodating with their circumstances. In this way, they can make their lives more comfortable, though living in difficult ones.

In our daily routine, patience has a very important part to play. We see a lot of massive rush on our roads. The sound of loud horns makes the environment more polluted. Everyone looks in a great hurry. It is observed that a lot of time is wasted in this situation. People have to face physical and mental torture in this condition. The main cause behind this situation is usually impatience. If everyone can wait for his turn showing patience, this traffic rush can be managed more easily in lesser time with least tension.

One way to understand the importance of one quality is to have an idea of the negative aspects of the opposite of that. There are many negative effects on our mind and body of impatience, including the physiological effects and psychological effects. When we are impatient, the body releases the stress hormone cortisol. According to a study, stress hormones stimulate platelets, making them more likely to clot in arteries. It can be more negative if someone has already narrowed arteries by heart disease that can result in a heart attack. Another effect of impatience is on our psychological health. It can create anxiety that can affect our behaviour. It can be resulted in more serious psychological issues and can be resulted in depression, which can be resulted in dissatisfaction in life.

So, we must develop patience in our lives to make our lives more easy, productive and beneficial not only for us but for others as well.
