Remaining calm in difficult situations and being patient with others is seemingly one of the most necessary qualities for a person who wants to feel comfortable in society. However, not everyone succeeds in mastering them. But it is quite possible to become more patient if you work on yourself.
Necessary
- - knitting needles, crochet hook, threads for knitting,
- - cross stitch kit,
- - green tea.
Instructions
Step 1
Start by observing yourself from the side. Let's analyze your words and actions. The first step towards success is accepting the problem. Once you've come to the realization that you really need to train your patience, consider that you are on the right track.
Step 2
Work on yourself constantly. If you do not like that you quickly abandon the case, without completing it, because you did not have enough patience, force yourself to return to it and bring it to its logical conclusion. Find an activity that you like, which is time-consuming and physically demanding. For example, try cross-stitching or crocheting or knitting. In order to embroider a picture or knit even the simplest thing, you need perseverance and patience. And these classes develop it perfectly.
Step 3
Try to exclude those moments that piss you off. For example, if you don’t like that your family members don’t twist the tube of toothpaste, buy one that doesn’t twist off the lid, but opens it. Do the same with other similar moments. The absence of irritants will also have a beneficial effect on your patience.
Step 4
Establish rules. This is a great way to help you stay on top of your temper when interacting with children. Parenting often shakes the patience of an adult, because it is not so easy to convince a child to do what you want him to do. It’s bad if it ends with screaming and quarreling, and it’s bad for both you and the child. Set up a rule codenamed "Count to three" or "I'll warn you for the last time." By this restriction, you will inform the child that when this phrase sounds, it is really better to agree with you, and you will not lose your temper ahead of time, knowing that the magic phrase has not yet been uttered.
Step 5
Monitor your diet. Yes, your body reacts differently to the foods you feed it. For example, coffee, chocolate and black tea excite the body and absolutely do not contribute to the development of patience. Try to drink green tea or mint tea more often, it has a calming effect. Self-control and diligence may well make you more patient, the main thing is that you yourself want to change.
