Transitions.

Wherever I am in my life, September is always a transition time. I have worked in a year round job with infants and toddlers in a hospital system that only closes 2 days a year (not open weekends) and is continuous, yet I still feel transition.

The seasons change but there is no start and stop like “a school year” yet today I feel that “first week of school” transition, and I have no traditional 8-5 job! 

Patience.

My husband keeps telling me to be patient as the right fit will come along. Now I have patience on my mind. How is it that I can be patient with children and the colleagues that I mentor but not with myself?  

I am replaying patience in my mind, this week my mantra is “be patient with yourself”. 

How do you practice patience especially during times of transition?
