Lord, give me patience, and I want it now.
That was one of the opening lines of my old Pastor's talks, an amazing Man God bless. Patience is not one of the virtues I have been blessed with in my life. I start a project, and a day later I'm already trying to see the end product, not the way to do things. Impatience is the one thing I have promised myself not to let myself get seduced by here at WA. I have struggled a little to hold myself back to ensure not to settle for poor results. Patience is something you can teach yourself over time especially if it is doing something you enjoy doing and makes you content. The problem I have given myself is I started one website, and got distracted with other ideas for 2 more sites in different niches, I am writing about one and thinking about the other, but I'll get over it, I hope.

I think this at times too. Seems like things aren't happening fast enough. It's nice to know we are not alone. Best wishes. :)
I was an impatient person until about 17 years ago. I learned patience by riding the public transportation system. The city bus. Take a couple of spins on public transit maybe That will help
Allen we all struggle with this at times so don't be so hard on yourself! Patience is a fruit of Holy Spirit, so just thank Holy Spirit for this free gift and you will see patience grow! :) If this offends you in any way just delete this! Christa :)
Hi Christabelle, thank you for your sweet, kind words. I am so sorry to here of your accident, I sincerely hope you are well now, I hope you succeed with your online Business, Take care, Allen.
Thank you. I am almost totally restored, still working on rebuilding my endurance is all. You Take Care as well! :)
This reminds me of a song by Queen, the lyric was: "I want it all, and I want it now". I liked the song, unfortunately it's not very realistic! Glyn.
The only way is one at a time but you can also set others stared to think about in the future with you new gained experience.

My advice to you is concentrate on one,sometimes we bite off more than we can chew and this happened to me at the start.I have only been here a year.At the beginning I picked three niche,s and purchased domains for them but I have learned that you are better to choose the one you are most passionate about and build it.
Remember Quality over Quantity.
That phrase is rather amusing, but it's also informational; it teaches us that we shouldn't expect God to give us patience, or anything else, right away. And if we're not expecting Him to give us patience right away, and we're willing to wait for it, we've already got patience! Keep working hard, my friend, and don't forget: almost all of us have been in the same boat (Ye Ole Impatience... I wonder if that's actually the name of a boat lol.)
hang in there, and persevere, you will get thru it. i love that saying about God give me patience, and GIVE IT TO ME RIGHT NOW!!
teehee, pretty much sums up the dilemma, huh?

If you learn this virtue please let me know. I was not blessed with that in my life and Lord knows I paid dearly. Good luck to you.
