Quote #56: Nicole Morreale

"Hi, I'm Nicole Morreale, Executive Assistant at Midland Area Community Foundation and Special Project Manager with Midland Area Wellbeing Coalition. A quote that inspires me is "Patience is a form of wisdom. It demonstrates that we understand the fact that sometimes things must unfold in their own time.", said by Jon Kabat Zinn on my Calm App. The reason I find this quote so inspiring is I struggle with patience daily at home and at work. I want to always rush through things, but this quote helps me to know life goes by too fast as it is, slow down, enjoy everything, and I will not make mistakes and not frustrate my husband or my kids. This quote supports my wellbeing by teaching me to breathe, slow down, and making sure I am reviewing tasks that I am working on before sending them in or helping me to enjoy my family and events we attend together. So, is that email you just rushed through to send your reply up to your standards? If you are 5 minutes late to that family gathering, will it matter? This has been brought to you by the Midland Area Wellbeing Coalition's Quotes to Live By Series. Just Breathe!"
