April Core Value Patience
There’s a popular psychology experiment that demonstrates the difficult task of having patience. The concept is simple. A child is given a marshmallow and told that they can eat the marshmallow now, but if they wait ten minutes they would get to eat two marshmallows. The reactions of the children are often quite amusing as they face the challenge of delayed gratification. Check out this video and see some funny reactions as some kids struggle to have patience: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g75lwNUpUQg. As many of us know from experience, sometimes it is hard to have patience. As an ancient proverb reminds us,“Patience is not the ability to wait, but the ability to keep a good attitude while waiting.”
