Patience, child!

One of my karate instructors always says: "Patience is a virtue and a strategy."

But in everyday life patience is difficult.

I think a lot of us are hard on ourselves. When we don't accomplish what we want immeadiatly, in a day or a week, we get frustrated.

I constantly have to remind myself that I couldn't climb Everst in a day. It's impossible. The same holds true in everyday life. Things take time and you can't complete them until you are ready.
