Excellence is developed through patience and holding steady through the process of self development. The quick and accessible route is not always in the best interest of quality and longevity. Lasting excellence is a methodical and arduous process. Patience allows one to establish a firm platform from which to build and to grow. The key to cultivating patience is to focus upon the activity, which one is currently involved. “An effective coach displays the following skills and characteristics: empathy, active listening, ability to size up people, diplomacy and tact, patience toward people, concern for the welfare of others, self-confidence, noncompetitiveness with team members, and enthusiasm for people”(DuBrin,2005).
