Human life is wonderful and difficult. And patience is considered very important to make this life more beautiful. Everyone wants to achieve success in life. But achieving success is not that easy. It requires years of hard work and patience. In today’s modern IT era where everyone is in a hurry and wants to achieve success quickly, the importance of patience has increased.
In today’s article of Future Success Hub, we will try to highlight the importance of patience in life and understand why it is important to maintain patience in every aspect of life.
1. Success with patience:
Patience is a tool that makes a person mentally strong. It is a silent companion that stands by a person in every difficult moment of life. No matter how much difficulty a person is in, patience is the only thing that encourages and comforts him. When a person does a big job, he often faces failure. In such a situation, he often loses courage and becomes disappointed with life. But in such a situation, if he holds the reins of patience and says to himself, “I can do this,” then a person succeeds in his goal.
For example: If a student is preparing for a big exam and despite working hard every day, he is not getting the results he is trying for, then he will either give up or continue his journey with patience. If he is patient and works hard continuously, one day he will get the reward for his hard work. Patience teaches us that there is a time for everything. Just by sowing a seed, you don’t get fruit immediately, you have to give it time, you have to take care of it. In the same way, the seed of success must also be watered with the water of patience.
2. The first step of patience is controlling emotions:
Patience does not mean just waiting, but controlling yourself in any pain is called patience. When we are in pain or someone hurts us, the first thing that comes to our mind is to take revenge.
We are angry at that time and the fire of revenge is burning inside us. In such situations, controlling yourself and remaining silent and controlling your anger is called real patience. For us, there is the best example of patience of the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him).
When the infidels oppressed the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) and they kept slandering and insulting him, the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) did not leave the path of patience. Even when the Muslims conquered Mecca, he had the full opportunity to take revenge on all the infidels.
But the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) set an example of patience and tolerance that is still a wonderful example for the world today. He forgave all the infidels and taught his nation patience and tolerance. Similarly, when we face difficult situations in our daily lives, we should learn to respond thoughtfully rather than reacting immediately, because these are the moments that define our personality and our future.
3. Patience is the cause of peace of mind and improvement in relationships:
A person cannot live a successful life just by improving his financial situation, but for this, peace of mind and better relationships with close people are also very important. Patience is a skill that brings peace of mind and helps us get out of depression. When a person holds the reins of patience and learns to forgive instead of getting angry over small things, happiness and love increase in his life.
Patience plays an important role in every relationship in life. Be it the relationship between parents and children or between students and teachers, friends or husband and wife, differences arise in every relationship. In such a situation, a person who is patient instead of getting angry and solves problems thoughtfully is always successful. Along with him, all relatives and friends seem to stand by him in difficult times because he solves problems through discussion and adopts patience. On the contrary, a person who gets angry instead of being patient loses everything.
Peace of mind is also related to patience. When we control our emotions, the mind remains calm. A calm mind makes better decisions, and better decisions are the key to success.
4. Patience and the value of time:
When patience and time come together, no task is impossible. Time is the greatest teacher in a person’s life and patience is the means by which we can learn the value of time. Sometimes when a person is in trouble, he panics and makes hasty decisions, which leads to his loss. While a patient person gives time to the situation, does not panic and makes the best decisions when the best time comes, which lead to his success.
For example, if there is a loss in business, giving up immediately is not success. Learning with patience, analyzing and adopting new strategies with time is the real success. Many successful businessmen in the world saw failure in the beginning but tried again with patience and are successful today.
Similarly, in matters of relationships, education, career and health, it is very important to understand and believe in the power of time and patience.
5. Patience is an expression of faith in Allah:
Patience is an expression of faith and trust in Allah Almighty. When a person is patient in any difficulty, he is showing that this difficulty is from Allah and that Allah will make it easy. At that time, a person is showing his faith that he has faith in his Allah. He is telling that whatever Allah does, He does it for the good of His servant. And patience has been repeatedly advised in the Holy Quran.
At one place it is said, “Indeed, Allah Almighty is with those who are patient.”
This verse reminds us that we are not alone. Every trial, every difficulty, every delay is a test and if we are patient, Allah’s help is with us. The one who is patient is successful, because he believes in Allah, and the one who has faith never fails. Difficulties keep coming in the paths of life, but the one who holds the reins of patience will reach the destination of success.
