Five enduring learners continued their study of Patience. In the SFG book, we read the section titled “Value of Patience.” We took two experiments from this section:
Experiment 1: Use the following affirmation in your daily life whenever you confront a frustrating or painful situation: “Everything happening around me is the past. What’s happening now is the way I choose to respond.”’ Let this affirmation re-orient your understanding so that you can respond with patience and love. Record situations in which you are able to use this affirmation effectively.
Experiment 2: Select an aspect of your life that involves one of the three points above (overdoing something, feeling rushed, or being impatiently concerned about another person). Write down the person’s name or the nature of the frequent situation (e.g., I feel rushed every day to get my work done at my job). Work each day for a week on replacing your impatience with a new sense of patience which comes from affirming the continuity of your life as a soul. At the end of the day make notes about how you did with recognizing your timeless nature in this part of your life.
