If　you　truly　want　to　change；　you　will　choose　to　do　it；　and　make　a　mitment　to　the　process　of　it。　However；　if　you　rely　on　the　thought　that　you　should　change；　you　will　make　the　decision　to　do　so　and　then　you　will　feel　the　pinch　of　sacrifice。　Following　the　current　trends；　the　advice　of　friends；　or　the　wishes　of　family　members　result　in　decision；　following　you　inner　pass　results　in　choice。

So　when　you　are　struggling　to　make　a　change　in　your　life；　ask　yourself；　“How　willing　am　I；　really；　to　make　this　change？”　If　you　are　not　succeeding；　there’s　a　good　chance　that　you　may　be　relying　on　your　belief　that　you　should　change；　rather　than　on　your　intrinsic　desire　to　do　so。

Patience　is　the　display　of　tolerance　while　awaiting　an　oute。　You　are　presented　with　the　lesson　of　patience　the　moment　you　try　to　create　a　change　within　yourself。　You　expect　immediate　results　and　are　often　disappointed　when　your　first　few　attempts　to　follow　through　fall　short。　When　people　who　try　to　lose　weight　cheat　on　their　diets；　they　get　very　frustrated　with　themselves　for　not　being　able　to　stay　with　their　new　eating　regime　and　berate　themselves　for　not　changing　their　patterns。

As　you　already　know；　change　is　rarely　easy；　and　you　need　to　exercise　gentleness　and　patience　with　yourself　as　you　work　your　way　through　this　process。　Growth　can　be　a　slow；　painstaking　process　and　patience　will　provide　you　with　the　stamina　you　need　to　bee　the　person　you　want　to　be。

If　you　absolutely　hate　getting　stuck　in　traffic；　chances　are　that　you　need　a　little　work　in　the　area　of　patience。　And；　chances　are；　you　will　probably　get　stuck　in　more　traffic　jams　than　someone　who　has　no　issue　with　patience—and　not　simply　because　the　universe　has　a　sense　of　humor。　You　will　just　notice　the　traffic
