Then you don't have the right wirless charger, there are some very good MagSafe ones which charge quite fast. Anyways, if you are in a real rush for some reason you can always use a cable, but for every-day charging I find wireless much more convenient especially since I often want to use my wired Earpods. Usually when I go to bed I stick my iPhone to my Belkin MagSafe dual charging stand which has a spot for my Apple Watch just next to the phone charging disk and then I can use my wired headset. At work I have a wireless charger on my desk so if I do need to top up the battery I just put it on top and forget about it.
