Is there always a reward for being patient?

Entwistle · 56-60, M Best Comment
Patience itself is the reward for being patient. It's a cutting off of the anxiety and suffering of what you desire.

Depends on the situation and how much you know about it and the people involved. Might be best to let things unfold a little and learn more. Motives and agendas might be unearthed that help you make a better decision to pounce more decisively or to walk away and save time and money.

@SW-User then its not the being patient thats the problem ,,
Whoever you was being patient for ,and they took advantage of it was
Normally being impatient is only stressful on you (or the one doing the waiting )
and you can't push time ,it slows down
so you have to have some confidence in whoever or whatever your being patient for .as a rule ,it is worth the wait .
Sometimes you have to know when to act or give it up as another member pointed out ,,,
But as a rule ,,being one who can be patient is a good thing
An attribute of your good character
And shows lack of character ,,in the ones who took advantage or you
Impatience is not a nice feeling and doesn't help anyone so why bother with that?

No ,neither one of my wives came home
but I am way more patient ,Job don't have anything on me
I would have been better off if all the well meaning people had just shut up ,and let me move on

No, not always, sometimes there is a punishment for being patient.

Early bird gets the worm, not the patient one.
