Hi Hiveians

Here is a phenomena in the life of a man that i have come to realize and want us all to benefit from. In its simplest term the word is termed WAITING.
Most times in life we get to a stage in which we have to wait a certain period of time for somethings to happen or for us to get something and like a barren woman who is still looking up to fate for a child what do we do while waiting, how do we feel or react to these situation?.
It is very easy for anxiety to set in and when depression shows his face we may never be able to feature the bright side and the happy end result that will come at the end of our waiting.

Here are some life examples that i feel can be of help

While waiting for that dream job why not learn a skill, work on your abilities, be creative and pass each day doing something that gives you joy. Am a microbiologist by certification but an opportunity is not yet available for me here in Nigeria, i took to my mothers old manual sewing machine, began a skill acqusition in that line, i may not have forgotten my career as a scientist but i will keep waiting for that opportunity while on my machine, 😍 smiles.

I have learnt never to let go of a second in my life without accounting for how well i have used it, it took me 4 regretable and useless years at home doing nothing after my high school and before i got admission into the university, i was home doing nothing, i got sick from depression and hoplessness, i was idle, gloomy and only negative energy emernated from me.

Have i told you that you can chose to volunteer in organizations and other peoples business, you will definately learn a new thing, you meet people, places and activities that will impact on you positively, Do not just sit home all day and mourn your delays, be proactive and lively, your chances will slip through and meet you right where you are adding value to yourself.

What do you do while waiting for that sick brother, sister or relative to get healthy.

This is a very critical aspect of waiting when we behold the face of a loved one and cannot tell if they will stay with us or rest in the sleep of death.
It is fearful, scary and horrible.
But after given science a chance to try her charms we can 🙏 pray, have faith in something, read good books about faith and stay strong for them. We must put away sadness and never say hurtful words eachtime we appear before them, give them reasons to stay alive and show all the love we can, no negative energy is allowed in that hospital bed 🛌.

The level of support you show will determine how quickly sound health will be restored.

What to do while waiting for a visa,

this is very easy, try reading about the countries you want to visit online, in books and let those take you through a tour right where you are. Learn their culture and look at the bright side, it will give you happy thought and a good eargerness to wait for the time to come.
