“Patience does not mean to passively endure. It means to be farsighted enough to trust the end result of a process. What does patience mean? It means to look at the thorn and see the rose, to look at the night and see the dawn. Impatience means to be so shortsighted as to not be able to see the outcome.

When I feel I'm doing it right, it's 90% listening and 10% output. It's not "look what I can do!"”
