When I have to wait for something may be a confirmation or whatever it stops me from being active.I just freeze There is a stubborn refusal to do anything. I just cannot change this. Does waiting hamper your life?

I feel it happens with most of us. Our mind is occupied waiting, and we don't feel like doing anything else.

You said it. Our mind gets fully or even gets over loaded

Generally I don't mind waiting. I can read a little or find a small task to do. But I think I know what you mean. When someone comes to do work on our house, like when we got the new flooring done, I could not settle to any task while he worked in our house all day.

I mostly get frustrated when something does not happen at the time specified.

I am one very impatient person and I don't like to wait. But however I need to do it at times no matter how much I hate it.

No, I busy myself with something else because if I don't the waiting seems forever. Don't you think so?

@allknowing Precisely. When I feel that it's taking so long, it will make me mad and I don't want to be mad because that stresses me a lot. So, I will get busy just to keep my mind from waiting.

It depends on what I am waiting for. One time I had to wait for results of a medical test and had to wait a little bit and it drove me nuts. When I got the results I was relieved and it turned out good.

There are many places where we are required to wait. You are right that if we are waiting for something, we just cannot indulge ourselves in some other task.

I guess it depends what you are waiting for. If you are waiting in for a parcel delivery and waste all day waiting and waiting for it to arrive it is pretty annoying. I usually try to remember the saying all good things comes to those who wait!

There are situations when if you leave you will miss out something perhaps dear to you
