How patient are you?

I want to believe that I am a very patient person. However, there is just some things that I just can't handle. A situation is up today and it took all my power not to loose my patience. I was about to shout and kick but I held myself together. What makes you loose your patience?

I believe I am a very very patient person. I can wait for my turn for a long time and I amm very patient with people who have offended me one way or another. And if I do lose my cool, I still respond very patiently and think many times before I act on it.

Thinking before acting is definitely a positive trait. Sometimes, I forget to do this which gets me in trouble. lol.

Its hard to think first before acting on situations wherein you're already hype up and you are in a position where you already want to lash out to someone just to vent your anger. sometimes taking a deep breath is a first step and then take it from there.

I know in myself i am so patient, this is one of the nice qualities i have. if i am not patient, then i wont get a job that i have now. I patiently work and study at the same time, although it was hard. Now i am glad i did this. happy mylotting!

That's good. Having the patience for both would benefit you in the end.

I am a very patient person. I can't think of the last time I lost my temper or lost my patience at all. It must have been a very long time ago. If there is a situation which could cause me to become impatient I just remember that nothing will alter even if I DO lose my temper - except that I might have problems with high blood pressure and I think about something else

You're right. Thinking about one's health will help you be more patient. I am usually patient but right now, I am just fed up with the situation I mentioned. Well, we'll see.

There are times that I get irritated when I can't find things. Sometimes, I start shouting at people who are near me or at people whom I know is the last one who used it but as my sister always reminds me, use your eyes for looking and not your mouth. :)
