How to Slow the Rush and Enjoy More Happiness, Success, and Peace of Mind Every Day.
From the internationally bestselling author and creator of the 'Random Acts Of Kindness' movement comes an accessible and timely guide to another essential modern virtue, patience - something we all need, now more than ever . . .
Who can honestly say that they don't lose their patience from time to time? In today's fast-moving world, when everyone is working harder than ever and playing less, we expect everything to happen instantly and become aggravated when it doesn't: the computer that takes too long to boot up, endless queues, meetings that run on forever, traffic jams, kettles that won't boil, waiting for trains that never come and people who don't react quickly enough to our needs. The result is that we often feel rushed, stressed, overworked and unhappy.
The time for patience has come. And who better to show us how to reclaim it than the creator of the million-selling series that began with 'Random Acts Of Kindness' and spawned an international movement. With her trademark warmth and wisdom, Mary Jane Ryan shows us how to reclaim the forgotten virtue of patience on a daily basis.
'The Power Of Patience' also shows us how doing so allows us to make better decisions and feel better about ourselves every day.
