About this listen
A deeper look at an old-fashioned quality. We've all heard the phrase, "Patience is a virtue", and doubtless responded with a sigh, as usually it's spoken with a tone of reproach. But this virtue carries with it a wealth of wisdom that can actually help us find happiness in our day to day. Author Mary Jane Ryan details just what living with patience can bring to our lives and how it can change us for the better.
Slow the rush. Things move at a quick pace in our society, in both our work lives and social lives. Not only are we forced to keep up, but we have been conditioned to expect instant gratification. Because of this, we find ourselves getting flustered by the smallest setbacks or hold ups-whether it's a slow server at a restaurant or rush-hour traffic. Ryan shares how patience is the very antidote to the stress that our fast-paced lifestyle results in.
Reclaim our priorities. By reining in our aggravation when things don't happen instantaneously, we give ourselves time to breathe and think more clearly. We make better use of our days and allow ourselves to make decisions based on how they align with our priorities, instead of focusing on how fast we can get tasks done. With Ryan's help, we can learn to foster a patient outlook and find joy and fulfillment in the present moment.

Everybody waits. We wait for a spouse, wait for a baby, wait on our children, wait for our parents. We wait for clarity and direction. We wait on a job, a promotion, a new direction. We wait for hope, for healing, and for miracles. We wait on God. And when we misunderstand what waiting is about, we can get confused about what God is up to. Waiting is one of God’s favorite tools. He can do certain things in our hearts, our lives, and our relationships while we wait - things we cannot experience once we’ve opened the gift we have been waiting for.

"Having empathy means our heart goes out to another person in joy or pain," says Dr. Judith Orloff. "But for empaths, it goes much further. We actually feel others' emotions, energy, and physical symptoms in our own bodies, without the usual defenses that most people have." The Empath's Survival Guide is an invaluable resource for empaths who want to develop coping skills in a high-stimulus world while embracing their gifts of intuition, compassion, creativity, and spiritual connection.

At some point, every one of us embarks on a journey to find love. We meet people, date, get into and out of relationships, all with the hope of finding someone with whom we share a deep connection. This seems standard now, but it’s wildly different from what people did even just decades ago. Single people today have more romantic options than at any point in human history. With technology, our abilities to connect with and sort through these options are staggering. So why are so many people frustrated?

Have you ever looked around and wondered, “Why has everyone found love except me?” You’re not the only one. Great relationships don’t just appear in our lives - they’re the culmination of a series of decisions, including whom to date, how to end it with the wrong person, and when to commit to the right one. But our brains often get in the way. We make poor decisions, which thwart us on our quest to find lasting love.

Learned a lot of new tips!
I recommend this to all the perfectionists, lot of items may resonate well with you. The power of books are, it gets to your mind in a neutral and personal way, rather than debating with another adviser/friend.
For me, what I liked the most was, lot of things were new and compared to other audible books, I had lot of interest to this topic, which made me stick and listen fully in short period time during commutes and gym workouts.
The tips and notes I took will make a quick impact on my daily overall, family and work life.
It touches through, situations which we’re all familiar with our daily life. Also, I could compliment this to the ‘Atomic habits’ book.

Absolutely 💯 Necessary
This book is so much a necessity and life saver! After 6 months of quitting alcohol I learned I don't have patience and it began to affect my health, this book came just in time when I finally learned that I have no patience. Absolutely 💯 % necessary and will add value and peace to your much driven life.

Narrator voice is annoying
Authors should read their own books. This sounded like a robot. The content and concepts where good but it took a pot of patience to get through.

No real value
I kept listening to the book hoping to learn something…..but there’s nothing insightful in it

Lots of anecdotes, not terribly helpful
Perhaps ironic that a book on patience would be so tedious. I think if the title attracts, the reader already knows he/she has room to improve. Nearly the first 30% are excessive anecdotes on the benefits to improve without tips on how. I skipped ahead to a chapter title that would give me what I was seeking, and when the author did start to provide practical advice, even that was filled with more anecdotes. I’d hardly call this well researched or useful.
