I’ve come to the realization that I have an issue with instant gratification. It’s also the reason I’m impatient. Growing up as a child, almost everything I wanted or needed that wasn’t Food or school supplies I had to wait for. Even though at a young age my mother was frank and admitted when she didn’t have the money to buy me certain things, I appreciated her honesty and understood that I’d just get something I wanted when I got it if at all. Fast forward to present day and now I go above and beyond to spoil myself. For instance I just blew through more than $1100 in the past 24 hours alone, although all of it went towards tools for self improvement, it made me realize I have developed an issue with waiting for things or waiting for situations to unfold.
Pretty sure this is the wisdom aspect of the program acting itself out. I honestly have no idea how to cultivate my patience other than just not give a damn and let go of what I cannot directly control. Honestly it’s not going to get too much better either right now as I still have around 4-5 more things to attain before every single resource I want is in place up until 2020. I’m focused on gaining what I want just as long as I don’t hurt myself or others of course but the patience is not there. I want to take advantage of the opportunities in front of me to gain what I need while I still can in terms of developing myself as a man, and then as a true entrepreneur.
