Video: 02. Patience - How We Think | 16 Guidelines for Life

To practise patience is to taste the power of the mind.

Life is full of uncomfortable experiences, from minor niggles and irritations to major confrontations and setbacks. When they happen, we have a choice about how to respond. We can either become agitated and upset, or we can stay calm and relaxed.

Patience is the ability to control our reactions and retain our peace of mind.
