Patience is a Virtue -- One I Don't Have
My other major flaw that has become even more apparent recently is my impatience. It's a strange impatience really, because I've got no reason to be as impatient as I am.
I'm impatient about progress. I've recently noticed that I'm trying to sprint before I can steadily walk, in terms of developing and growing my non-profit foundation. I have so many ideas that I want to implement but not enough help to do it because not that many people are aware of our cause yet and not many people care about it yet.
I'm also impatient with people, unfortunately. I am unable to humor people who ask dumb questions for any respectable amount of time. I'm probably one of the few people out there who does believe that there's such thing as a dumb question. It irks me when people can't get on the same page (I know that's a ridiculous expectation). I also get irked when people are being flakey or just generally lame (yes, this is a subjective evaluation, but basically I get impatient with people when I feel like they're not living up to their awesome potential).
I'm also impatient, mostly out of excitement, for the next phase of my life. I'm really too young and not ready for the next phase of my life to arrive, but I'm still impatient about meeting prince charming, buying a home, having nice things, and in general, getting on with the act of being an adult. Still, though I say that I wish I could do all of this now, if I met prince charming tomorrow and he started talking about marriage, I would RUN, run like the wind.
Finally, I've recently taken up tennis lessons, and my instructor constantly has to remind me not to hit the ball too early. That really just sums it all up.
I'm in a hurry to get things done
Oh I rush and rush until life's no fun
All I really gotta do is live and die
But I'm in a hurry and don't know why
Don't know why I have to drive so fast
My car has nothing to prove
It's not new
But it'll do zero to sixty in five point two
I'm in a hurry to get things done
Oh I rush and rush until life's no fun
All I really gotta do is live and die
But I'm in a hurry and don't know why
Can't be late, I leave in plenty of time
Shakin' hands with the clock
I can't stop
I'm on a roll and I'm ready to rock
I'm in a hurry to get things done
Oh I rush and rush until life's no fun
All I really gotta do is live and die
But I'm in a hurry and don't know why
Oh, I hear a voice
That says I'm running behind
Better pick up my pace
It's a race and there ain't no room for someone in second place
I'm in a hurry to get things done
Oh I rush and rush until life's no fun
All I really gotta do is live and die
But I'm in a hurry and don't know why
