  • Summary

  • Patience begins with me I write about conscious reality creation, mindfulness, manifestation, and the like frequently. Each time I write about it, I explore how it requires combined thought, feeling, action, and a positive approach. Then, from there, you must apply intent with your action to make manifest the tangible or intangible. Intent and action and time. Seldom, if ever really, is it instantaneous. When it comes to me and my choices, do I apply them? Not enough, no. This doesn’t just apply to fencing at all. Overall, my patience on nearly every level of my life has been disregarded, ignored, and shunted away. Ironically, as much as I teach patience here and to new fencers, my own is lacking. Recognizing and acknowledging the need for greater patience Upon closer examination, it certainly looks to me like a lack of patience is causing me distress on many levels. The blockage I’ve been trying to identify might all come down to this. It starts by recognizing my impatience. Recognition is only the beginning. It needs to also be acknowledged. That way, I’m saying not just “I see I’m being impatient,” but also “I acknowledge my lack of patience needs to be adjusted by me.” Recognized and acknowledged, now I can start to do something about this. What do I do? The first step is to pause. Pause before I type, pause before I attack when fencing, pause before I get on the road. Then, be mindful, and consciously aware of what I’m thinking, what and how I’m feeling, my approach, then my intention and actions. Am I being patient or impatient? This is a question I haven’t been asking, but clearly need to be. When I meditate, this should be considered. When I do, going forward I need to be more cognizant that I’m doing as I say. Maybe you have patience that I don’t. Pausing, however, is good for you, too. In a society where it’s always “go go go”, pausing allows you and me to better get a handle on things. You and I can take more time to be present, here and now, and work smarter (not harder). I see I have some work to do here. This week’s Applied Guidance for Mindfulness Tool: Here’s an exercise to invoke more patience. This is a simple 3-step applied patience process you can use anytime you make choices or decisions or do anything at all. Step 1: Pause. Don’t just go. Pause, reflect, consider first. Step 2: Be mindful. Be consciously aware of what you’re thinking, what and how you’re feeling, your approach (positive or negative), then your intention and actions. Step 3: Act. After steps one and two, consciously and mindful, act. · Pause · Be Mindful · Act Does this added step of patience help you better balance?
