This from Larry Wall (of Perl fame) seems relevant...
The Three Virtues [Paraphrased]
1) #Laziness - The quality that makes you go to great effort to reduce overall energy expenditure.
2) #Impatience - Because you are impatient, you will build systems and shortcuts for your daily work.
3) #Hubris - You have the confidence that you can do better than the status quo.

A quotation from Marcus Aurelius
Our anger and annoyance are more detrimental to us than the things themselves which anger or annoy us.
[Ὄγδοον, ὅσῳ χαλεπώτερα ἐπιφέρουσιν αἱ ὀργαὶ καὶ λῦπαι αἱ ἐπὶ τοῖς τοιούτοις, ἤπερ αὐτά ἐστιν ἐφ’ οἷς ὀργιζόμεθα καὶ λυπούμεθα.]Marcus Aurelius (AD 121-180) Roman emperor (161-180), Stoic philosopher

A quotation from Marcus Aurelius
Tell yourself, when you feel exasperated and out of all patience, that this mortal life endures but a moment; it will not be long before we shall one and all have been laid to rest.
[ὅταν λίαν ἀγανακτῇς ἢ καὶ δυσπαθῇς, ἀκαριαῖος ὁ ἀνθρώπειος βίος καὶ μετ᾿ ὀλίγον πάντες ἐξετάθημεν.]Marcus Aurelius (AD 121-180) Roman emperor (161-180), Stoic philosopher

Pulled up to the #Costco here in #Kalamazoo. They had a small gasoline spill and the staff were there treating it. The guy behind me, in a hulking giant black Denali just didn’t want to wait, so he pulled along side and menaced the staff person cleaning up the spilled gasoline. I was shocked at the #entitlement and #impatience. The staff shrugged it off. These people deserve what is coming for them. #today #misanthropy

Why did we wait for any thing? — why not seize the pleasure at once? — How often is happiness destroyed by preparation, foolish preparation!

…simple way to measure #discounting while side stepping the problems of utility curvature. … finding little evidence of decreasing #impatience but significant evidence of #subadditivity… may have important implications for the design of contracts or payment plans
