The Burden of Impatience

Clasp your hands and extend your arms as far away from your body as you can. Imagine that in your hands is your burden of impatience. You may not be ready to let go of this yet, so hold it for thirty more seconds. 

As your arms grow weary, think of all of the other things you could be doing with your hands (and with your life) if you could just let go and move on. Remember that holding this burden is hurting you, not anybody else, but letting go will help everyone.
