In addition to you post,
most people tend to forget the difference between patience and persistence. It is the difference between doing and dreaming. It's the difference between those who get to the finish line and those who quit before the work really begins...
Thus; be patient and do the work, will set you up good!
Great clarification! Patience does not mean letting it all work out itself, but actually putting the effort and being cool if there's no instant reward.
