257. What Patience Really is and How to Have More of It

Did you know that the opposite of patience isn’t impatience? I’ve got to tell you that I didn’t know that until I started researching this episode. Patience is actually on a continuum, with too much or too little, on either side of the spectrum, being unhealthy. The sweet spot is somewhere right in the middle. Having patience is correlated with all kinds of good stuff: the ability to work collaboratively, healthy and strong relationships, and achievement of goals. Today, you’ll learn about the three kinds of patience, why it’s good for you and my top five tips for having more of it.  ____________________________ Full blog and show notes: https://abbymedcalf.com/what-patience-really-is-and-how-to-have-more-of-it Learn to Meditate for 15 Minutes in Just 15 Days: https://abbymedcalf.com/product/learn-to-meditate-for-15-minutes-in-just-15-days ____________________________ Looking for past episodes of the Relationships Made Easy Podcast?
