Using Boiled Eggs to Teach You About Patience - Wellbeing Wisdom Tiny Bites Podcast

Did you know the older you get, the more patience you’ll have?

Think about you as a 10-year-old…what frustrated you? I remember peeling boiled eggs with Mom, and they just weren’t cooperating. The shell was sticking to the egg and every peeled egg was a misshapen, pock-marked, cracked mess.

I was so upset – every time the shell took with it a chunk of egg white, I got madder. Mom laughed at me, asking if I thought I was peeling eggs for the Queen of England. In that moment, I didn’t see the humor, I just saw my complete failure in the egg-peeling department.

Now when I peel eggs and they don’t cooperate, I don’t see it as an indictment of me as a person – they’re too fresh to peel easily, so they’ll make great egg salad. The older we get, the more patience we have. Trust that, no matter how old you are now.
