How to Overcome Impatience?

A woman asks about how to overcome the impatience of the mind. Rupert suggests that we just understand that impatience is part of the story, part of our conditioning. We don’t need to get involved with the story of impatience. Everything that has come before is part of the conditioning that generates the thought, ‘I am impatient to get to…’. This doesn’t mean that we shouldn’t take an interest in our life, but we don’t need to change the story at all.
