IMPATIENCE and PROCRASTINATIION are like two opposite poles to each other.
IMPATEINCE means unable or unwilling to wait, i.e. want to see action immediately. On the other end PROSCRATINATION is the unwillingness to take action. By that description it seems logical to me that they should be at the opposite ends of each other. Then to think of it the actual opposite of impatience is PATIENCE while the opposite of procrastimation is ACTION.
By that simple deduction one would conclude that PATIENCE is ACTION. True or false?
I am going to reflect on these words. I would like to hear your comments.
