Description
With the world moving at the click of a button, most of us have forgotten what it’s like to wait for something. But if we’ve learned anything from the great minds of Albert Einstein and Winston Churchill, it’s that waiting shapes your talents into your greatest achievements yet. But how does sitting in traffic jams or being placed on hold make you a better person?  In this episode, Dr. Rick shares the deep wisdom behind waiting and how it creates the most valuable and fulfilling experiences in your life.  Show Highlights Include: What Bible stories and developing films have to teach you about creating more meaningful experiences in life and finding strength the next time you get impatient.

(10:49) What knitting reveals about the power of patience and how you can find clarity in everyday tasks. (12:00) Do you want to stop existing and start living your best life right now?
