If you can't wait, turn on the hot water faucet and the hot water will come faster.
In our home, it would take a minute and a half to get even warm water to the sink in the hall bathroom which is furthest from the hot water heater. I refuse to wait that long. I'm spoiled I guess. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE my Watts re-circ pump. My timer is set to turn the pump on at 6am and goes off at 10pm.
