What are some of the scripts that create patience?
"Things are going as fast as they are. I will do what I can to speed things up and I will accept the reality with serenity."
"Each second of life is precious. And I won't waste it by causing myself needless distress."
"One never knows where it is best for one to be at any given moment. I will try to make the wisest choices. But I will realize that where I am could be the best thing for me."
"I choose my emotional state and I am committed to living my life experiencing positive, resourceful states."
"Opportunities for personal growth can be found wherever one is and in any given situation. Right now I will look at the present as a gift and an opportunity."
(from Rabbi Pliskin's book "Patience," published by ArtScroll - www.artscroll.com)
