why is being impatient is so much on the rise?

It’s just a reflection of what the society has become

It could be attributable to how fast-paced life is now, with everything moving quickly online and instant gratification being the norm. People might be getting more used to getting things done ASAPishly!

Impatience is rising primarily due to a “culture of immediacy” driven by rapid technological advancements and the widespread availability of on-demand services.Research indicates that nearly 60% of adults blame their lack of patience on digital technology, such as smartphones and streaming services.

Impatience is rising because we live in an instant world.

Instant messages, instant food, instant shopping, instant entertainment—technology has trained us to expect everything immediately.

But real success, relationships, and personal growth still take time. When reality moves slower than our expectations, frustration appears.

In a way, the faster the world becomes, the harder patience becomes to practice.

Now I’m curious:

Do you think technology is making people more impatient, or has impatience always been part of human nature?
