Yes, specialization helped my business grow. If I'm putting myself in my client's shoes, working with me somehow makes his/her life better -- easier, more successful, prosperous, fulfilling -- however it's measured. Having a simply stated yet adaptable offering, along with being accessible, has helped me get my foot in the door.]]> tag:blog.rockstar-consulting.com,2007-10-11:588502 DFish 2007-10-11T16:22:24Z 2007-10-11T16:22:24Z That's a great question.  I think that a lot of patience stems from having an understanding of the motives behind another's behavior and actions.  So if someone is annoying you because they don't make decisions as quickly as you think they should, you can look at why you don't always make decisions quickly.   It's the same principal behind that adage about not understanding someone until you walk a mile in their shoes.  You realize that in many ways, we wear shoes that are pretty similar already.

Another way to develop patience with others is to focus on creating patience with ourselves.  I don't think we can be more patient with other people until we are truly internally kind to ourselves.  Using the above method to distinguish what we don't like about ourselves, and then spending the time and energy to understand and forgive ourselves, is the first step to having that patience with our enemies.

I'm also totally open to any other ideas about developing patience that others might have.]]> tag:blog.rockstar-consulting.com,2007-10-11:588043 liz 2007-10-11T16:13:49Z 2007-10-11T11:33:59Z
