Posted by Philip Ryan in : General , trackbackFinding Patience at Work
Our lives at work are filled with difficulty. People are late for
meetings. Our ideas are not met with enthusiasm. Computers crash,
restart, and crash again. Other people don’t meet our expectations. Our
overnight package is lost. Relationships become impossible. Cash
shortages are threatening, and businesses fail. Patience requires that
we fully and directly face our difficulties, that we embrace and learn
from situations and from our feelings about them. Owning and
transforming our pain and disappointment can be a tremendous challenge,
as well as a tremendous gift.
–Marc Lesser, from Z.B.A.: Zen of Business Administration (New World Library)
