Wednesday Ethical Thoughts - July 12, 2023

Patience - This virtue teaches and conditions you not to lose your temper very often. However, a patient man knows when to actually get angry. The whole art is to strike a balance between the two extremes.
I have no patience – much like my father in this way. I want things now, and I mean now. That is until I had a child. In my many stresses in life, raising a child is the one that taught me the value and some of the virtue of patience. I fully admit, I continually work on this virtue.
One idea that has helped me the most came from Brene Brown. (Yes, love her work). She tells a story of how she learned to view people as doing the best they can, in that moment. That framing, a person is doing the best they can, helps me give a moment to see the situation from another side. It’s a start to think empathically towards the person. It cools the anger reaction giving me decision space on how to react instead of just reacting. The result is I feel and look more patient than I initially felt.
