Patience Quotes

Quotes About Patience 

  • Adopt the pace of nature, her secret is patience. --RALPH EMERSON
  • Be patient. Do the best with what you know. When you know more, adjust the trajectory. --Jen Hatmaker
  • How poor are they that have not patience. What wound did ever heal but by degrees? --William Shakespeare
  • If you rush it, you will ruin it. Pause, pray, and be patient.
  • Impatience breeds anxiety, fear, discouragement and failure. Patience creates confidence, decisiveness, and a rational outlook, which eventually leads to success. --BRIAN ADAMS
  • Patience and perseverance have a magical effect before which difficulties disappear and obstacles vanish. --John Quincy Adams, American President (1767-1848)
  • Patience is also a form of action. -- Auguste Rodin (French artist Auguste Rodin understood well the inherent virtue of patience. He is known for his expressive sculptures — most famously “The Thinker,” completed in 1904. Rodin spent long hours carefully crafting his creations from bronze and marble. His masterpieces, as well as his quote here, remind us that slowing down and taking time for contemplation are also crucial parts of moving forward.
  • Patience is being friends with Time.  --Vanna Bonta
  • Patience is passion tamed. --Lyman Abbott, American Author (1835-1922)

  • Patience is a virtue, and I'm learning patience. It's a tough lesson. --Elon Musk







Patience may be a virtue, but it's a difficult one to cultivate — especially in a world that is moving ever-faster. Yet with this quote, Enlightenment-era philosopher Jean-Jacques Rousseau reminds us that patience also comes with great rewards. Such rewards are never instant, but can increase over time, like an investment that must be allowed to mature. Research suggests that people who cultivate patience experience better mental and even physical health, and have happier relationships with others over the course of their lives.

Praise in Public, Admonish in Private
https://youtu.be/rp9rIvVsLbg
Praise In Public = Patience is not being patient with poor performance, it is being patient with how we handle poor performance. Leaders need to hold people accountable and have difficult conversations, but it is important to give praise in public, and admonish in private. How can you become a more loving servant leader? Be more patient!

MWM | TIMING
Don't hold off until tomorrow—today matters—do it now. = Timing is important—the time you have now is the only time you have to act on. People often wait for the right time to make the right decision, but waiting causes us to miss some great opportunities. We overexaggerate yesterday, we overestimate tomorrow, but we underestimate today. Don't hold off until tomorrow—today matters—do it now.



The Difference Between a Foul Ball and a Home Run | MWM
Practice Your Timing, In Leadership = In his book, The 21 Irrefutable Laws of Leadership, John Maxwell discusses the Law of Timing, which says that when to lead is as important as what to do and where to go. Success is a lot about timing. This is a difficult law to learn and you can improve your timing with practice! 



https://youtu.be/BnH8Qbk2D-E
"Do it now" = If there is one thing we've learned during these times, it's that time is precious. Every day is filled with new challenges, new excitement, and new adventures. The lesson here is: live in the moment, stop allowing time to pass. Act today on whatever it is you want to invest in - personal growth, new adventures, new businesses, and so much more!

https://youtu.be/aQ6rpAJ4w-8
Acknowledge Your Humanity = John Maxwell’s new book, High Road Leadership, discusses how it is important to acknowledge our humanity. High-road leaders do this by not only accepting what they do well, but also what they don’t do well—where they are lacking. When you are in touch with yourself, and acknowledge your humanness, you are able to love people, acknowledge their humanity, and appreciate them without judgment.
#Humanness



Practice Humility = Humility gives us the ability to learn—it makes us teachable. Are you practicing humility? 

Humility Will Help You Avoid This Pitfall | MWM

John Steinbeck was born in Salinas, California, where he spent the summers of his youth working on nearby ranches — the setting for much of his literary work, including "Of Mice and Men" and "East of Eden." His experiences gave him insights into the lives of the downtrodden, who often served as the protagonists in his novels. These struggles, not to mention living through the Great Depression, gave Steinbeck a greater appreciation for the good times he enjoyed. Steinbeck followed up the quote above with, "You only truly, deeply appreciate and are grateful for something when you compare and contrast it to something worse."




Would You Rather Win or Be Kind? | MWM
Would You Rather Win Or Be Kind? = If you have the choice to be right—to win—or be kind, always choose to be kind. You don't always have to be right, you don't have to win everything, instead we can be kind and ask others their opinions in order to connect.


What it Really Means to be Kind | MWM
https://youtu.be/cYG-Dbkw-M4
Look For A Need = Take advantage of today to be kind. Kindness embodies being good, while also taking useful action. It is being nice and helpful, gentle and useful, compassionate and generous, being positive and doing good. Kindness doesn’t only mean being nice, it means a willingness to act. Look for a need and meet it if you can. Who can you be kind to today?





What Kindness is and is Not
https://youtu.be/cCJjaOQSX-o
Encourage Others! = One of the 7 words of love from Joel Manby’s book, Love Works, is Kind—an extremely important leadership principle. As leaders, we must have tough conversations with people and hold them accountable, but we can still lead with kindness. We do this by making someone’s day better. Every time you come into contact with someone, you can make their day better or make their day worse. Every day, try to provide encouragement in each of your interactions, be positive, and improve the day. (You can learn more about the 7 timeless principles for effective leaders in Love Works)

  • Let no man turn aside, ever so slightly, from the broad path of honour, on the plausible pretence that he is justified by the goodness of his end. All good ends can be worked out by good means. --Charles Dickens (1812-1870) English Novelist
  • No man or woman of the humblest sort can really be strong, gentle and good, without the world being better for it, without somebody being helped and comforted by the very existence of that goodness. --Phillips Brooks (1835-1893) American Bishop
  • Goodness is about character - integrity, honesty, kindness, generosity, moral courage, and the like. More than anything else, it is about how we treat other people. --Dennis Prager
