Struggling? Take heart! The word #patience is derived from a Latin word that means "suffering," and it's the quality of being willing to bear adversity with a calm endurance!

In a world of instant 'likes' and immediate gratification, learning patience can be #difficult but it is essential to transformation.

So many are #quick to judge and label, but the wise person understands that time has a way of revealing the #truth .

In the midst of the challenge, your job is to persevere. Remember, #actions really DO speak louder than words.

It takes a #patient person to stay the course.

It takes a #strong person who is willing to suffer with a calm tenacity to ignore the naysayers and keep grinding out the work.

For delivering #words takes no time to implement but actions, by their nature, require time.

Patience benefits all sides and requires self-discipline along with self-sacrifice as it puts off the "instant" platitude in exchange for "longevity".

Patience, ironically, is in short supply. Those on the receiving end are forever grateful, and those who practice it already know its benefits and continue on steadily towards #success.
