How to be a patient person

All the great people who has ever walked this planet has one quality in common and i.e patience. Michelangelo once said "Genius is eternal patience." All the scientists had this quality within them. They know that success is not something that you could gain in a short period of time. It needs continuous efforts and a lot of hard work. But many people in this world are lacking this quality. If you don't know about the benefits of being patient then read this article first. So here are 10 tips to be a patient person:-
1. Meditate -- Meditation can be the key factor when it comes to increasing our patience. If done properly and regularly then meditation can help you build a lot of patience overtime.
2. Visualize -- Make a mental picture in your mind that in the near future you're a patient person and leading a very happy life. Visualization is a very powerful technique as it sends your subconscious mind the same information as if it were real. So in this way you can trick your mind and all this will help you build more patience.
3. Keep a journal -- Whenever you find yourself getting impatient start writing in your journal how you feel, why are you feeling so, and all those things. It helps calm the mind. As if you shared your problems with a very close friend of yours.
4. Look at the big picture -- Yes, whenever you find yourself in situation which suck out all the patience out of you, try looking at the big picture. For instance, if you're teaching a slow learner then you might lose your patience at a lot of places. But if you look at the bigger picture then you realize that he is learning after all and your getting impatience would only make your relationships weaker then you might stop getting impatient.
5. Be reflective -- Think about all the times when impatience coast. Then think about how you could have handled that situation differently without getting impatient. So, next time when a similar situation occurs in front of you then you'll be ready to face it.
6. Remind yourself that things take time -- Every great change that took place my life took time. And it's the same with everyone. So, don't get angry when you don't see results very soon. Just keep reminding yourself this thing time and again.
7. Take every situation as your training -- Every time when you face a situation which makes you impatient, take it as a training session which you need to clear. This technique help wonders if used in a good way.
8. Deep breath -- Yes, humans make mistake and so will you. So, if in spite of doing all these things, you get impatient again then take some deep breaths. It is sure to calm your mind.
