Words of wisdom: Patience

Patience is the companion of wisdom.


Patience is waiting. Not passively waiting. That is laziness. But to keep going when the going is hard and slow - that is patience.


Patience is not passive; on the contrary, it is active; it is concentrated strength.


Patience and perseverance have a magical effect before which difficulties disappear and obstacles vanish.


One moment of patience may ward off great disaster.  One moment of impatience may ruin a whole life. 


Learn the art of patience. Apply discipline to your thoughts when they become anxious over the outcome of a goal. Impatience breeds anxiety, fear, discouragement and failure. Patience creates confidence, decisiveness, and a rational outlook, which eventually leads to success.


Patience and perseverance have a magical effect before which difficulties disappear and obstacles vanish.


Patience is virtue.


“Adversity causes some men to break; others to break records.”


"No one can be given a blessing better and greater than patience." --- Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) [Sahih Al-Bukhari]
