Impulsive feelings or a deep need to feel emotionally fulfilled may drive you to act rashly today. Such feelings could result in your making a large but unnecessary purchase, acting impractically, or taking uncalculated risks. If you feel compelled to act in an urgent manner or make split-second decisions, consider stepping back from the situation and examining your motivations. You may feel low and in search of a quick remedy. Choosing from a place of urgency, instead of a place of calm, can often exacerbate a situation rather than improve it. Instead of making choices meant for instant gratification, look to satisfy your needs in practical, nurturing, and uplifting ways. Giving yourself a few hours of peaceful solitude or getting some bodywork done today may help you experience satisfaction. Remember that emotional fulfillment comes when we address our internal needs.
Exercising patience, instead of acting on impulse, can ensure that all of your decisions have merit within the context of your values. Positive intentions and strong plans can be easily derailed by impulsive actions. When you exercise patience, however, you have time to consider the action you are about to take or the option you are choosing. The sense of urgency driving you forward is dispelled, and you are able to view a situation with a more discerning eye. Patience breeds thoughtfulness and that can help you choose what's best for your life. Practice patience today, and rest assured that your decisions will be the best ones.
