Minutes tick by, hours pass, days turn into weeks, and the only question echoing in your mind is 'when?' You've been waiting, growing weary, and tempted to give up. Nobody enjoys waiting; we all crave instant gratification. Yet, sometimes waiting is inevitable.

Whatever you're waiting for must be valuable – a bank alert, admission, promotion, a child or something more. Have you ever waited so long that you rushed into a wrong decision or walked away, only to regret it later? Remember, 'the patient dog eats the fattest bone' (it applies so much in this scenario). Waiting may be challenging, but it's often worth it.

If you're in a waiting room right now, take your eyes off the clock. Shift your focus to something else. Get busy: read a book, learn a new skill, engage in a  conversation, pursue your hobbie, take a walk or a tour.

Regret can be a painful memory; don't let it be yours. Maybe what you've been waiting for is just at the door, about to knock. Don't give up now. Keep waiting; it will be worth it.

Wait for it!
