Description

Few people enjoy waiting in line, but it is sometimes unavoidable. Seeing it as a bore or a chore only makes the wait harder, and this effect is even worse if you are stressed or under pressure.

Next time you are caught in a queue, resist the urge to whip out your smartphone or to grumble inwardly about the person in front of you, and take the opportunity instead to to a little personal development.

Learn to see waiting time as an opportunity rather than a chore and you can start to enrich your day and, as the points above show, even improve your health and wellbeing.

Light-hearted yet practical, the LifeHack will show you how to make use of the time when you’d rather be doing something else.

Think of unavoidable hold-ups as ‘punctuations’ in your day; a chance to pause, take stock and plan your next move, and rather than railing against it, relax and enjoy the wait.
