Patience
We all know the old adage “patience is a virtue,” but I’ve never read such a well-stated example until I came across this quote by Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak:
“I acquired a central ability that was to help me through my entire career: patience. I’m serious. Patience is usually so underrated. I mean, for all those projects from third grade all the way through eighth grade, I just learned things gradually, figuring out how to put electronic devices together without so much as cracking a book… I learned to not worry so much about the outcome, but to concentrate on the step I was on and try to do it as perfectly as I could when when I was doing it.”
