We Pakistani are very impatience nation. We need everything urgent. And when results are not coming we become impatience.
Today I was standing in Business Bay metro station and waiting for Bus. And it was not coming. Waiting waiting and waiting. It took 15 minutes to come. I was impatient. Why It usually came with in 5 minutes. Why late. I am getting late form office. My target to reach office at 8 o clock. Office hours are flexible we have to reach before 9:30. It took almost 28 minutes to reach office from Business bay metro station to office where I am working at the time of writing this post. Then I realize that where is problem. Problem is in bus that it came late or I did not make margin of this extra time.
rumi quote came into my mind. “ When I was young, I want to change the world. Now I am wise, I want to change myself”.
What about I start my journey to office 15 minutes early. If I forget to charge my mobile. Why not have extra mobile charger in my laptop bag. What if, I make a plan one day a head.
Life never goes according to our plan. I have to add some margin in it.
Mr Jimmy Dean or If he was possible Pakistani then certainly his name would be Jimmy ul Dean once said.
“I can’t change the direction of the wind, but I can adjust my sails to always reach my destination.”
I read some where, “ Successful people are those who do self evaluate themselves”. And Self Evaluation is really painful. Difficult and painful to accept that fault, mistake or situation happens due to your lack of knowledge or proper handling. Only then you have to correct it. Acceptance requires patience with self.
Patience means, bear the current situation and be prepare that this situation never happen. or happen you have to handle it in better way.
