What If Patience Isn't About Willpower?

Andrea Gunnell Season 1 Episode 38

What if patience isn't about willpower, but about the thoughts we choose? In this episode, we explore how truly patient people have learned to think differently about difficult situations - from sleepness nights with babies to frustration while driving to hard trials we have in life. We take a look at how Joseph Smith's experience in Liberty Jail demonstrates the power of intentional thinking during trials. Whether you're a parent struggling with patience or anyone wanting to cultivate more calm in challenging moments, this episode offers a fresh perspective on developing this essential virtue through the stories we tell ourselves.
