Waking
You lost your temper briefly with your girlfriend this morning when she woke up early to drive to an appointment. She asked you the night before if you cared to be woken up earlier than usual and you told her 'no', however, she was exceptionally loud and interrupted your attempts to fall back to sleep.
You failed to exercise patience and understanding or to act with reservation. No one told you that you were meant to sleep to your normal waking hour. Should it happen again, remind yourself that it is not your girlfriend's fault that you woke up at this hour, but that this is what was meant to be and Nature simply acted through your girlfriend to cause you to wake.
Work
I intend to work and to maintain my will in a manner conformable to nature. Any number of things may occur, as they normally do, which may attempt to impede me; however, I will not be vexed for if I am, I will have failed to maintain my will in accordance with Nature as I originally set out.
