I've never been very patient. I am on time, or I contact people and explain that I'm going to be late, BEFORE I am late. I won't wait very long in doctor's offices.
Inability to manage time is evidence of incompetence. Since I retired, I leave, if a person is late. If I meet some one for dinner, and they are late, I go ahead, order and eat without them.
There is no panic involved. It's a deliberate and previously thought out act.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
