How to Be More Patient: An Essential Guide to Replacing Impatience with Patience

Rate this book
If you tend to lack patience and are ready to start leading a more emotionally-balanced and successful life, then this book is for you! Read on your PC, Mac, smart phone, tablet, or Kindle device. In today’s culture of instant gratification where credit cards let you pay with money you don’t yet have, where articles have to be short or you’ll never read them, and where you spend more time deleting emails than you actually have for reading those you need to, patience has become a dying art. We’ve been trained to want something five minutes ago, though yesterday would be even better. Impatience has become ingrained in us. Problem is, this isn't working to our benefit. From a health perspective, impatience contributes to stress, high blood pressure, and premature aging, among other deleterious impacts. From a psychological standpoint, impatience leads to unnecessary risks and poor decisions. From a social point of view, being impatient is a guaranteed way of losing friends and making enemies. It simply isn't an attractive trait. But believe it or not, you have far greater control over your own character than you might be aware of, or that you probably care to admit. Fortunately, your mood, attitude, and knee jerk reactions are not set in stone. The impatience that you’ve learned can actually be unlearned. Even better, your bad habits can be replaced by good ones. It takes a little patience, of course, but I'm going to help you along the way. Let's get started! Here Is A Preview Of What You'll Learn...Defining PatienceUnderstanding What Patience Isn’tImpatience and Its BenefitsTaking Control through Mindful AwarenessQuick and Easy Ways to Exercise PatienceBeing Patient with YourselfMuch, much more!Download your copy today! how to develop patience, how to have more patience, how to become more patient, be more patient, developing patience, practicing patience, having patience, how to be less impatient, learning to be more patient

Too basic

Good basic reminders about how to be patient, but not in depth and lacks substantive and concrete methods of improvement.

ehhh, I didn't really learn anything new from this and I didn't feel like the information in the book was incredibly unique. I think if you see this book and you don't have to pay for it (have kindle unlimited like me) its worth the time to read (only because it doesn't take that much time to read). I think most of the information in the book is good but kinda basic.

Decent, short read

I wanted to read something to help my impatience in the moment. I read this was a short read and found this to be true. However, it was helpful to have a quick reminder of why I'm being impatient and ways to improve.

Being a quite impatient person at times, this book caught my attention while I was browsing the self help category on Amazon.

This book is concise and well written. It contains good (trivial) tips that will definitely help me up managing my impatience.

It highly recommend this cheap book to anyone looking to improve itself as a person.

It was fine. Like a good long article about patience, but lacking in substance. length and or motivating exercises (ala Marie Kondo, Dave Ramsey, 5:2/ADF, etc.).
