3. Patience and Persistence
The most lacking trait in the youngsters is that of patience, and it is definitely those who possess it that succeed. Overnight success is great when it happens, but expecting it is impractical. A business is a baby, it takes time to adapt and grow. While keeping the patience in the field, persistence helps in getting the job done as it should be. Those who give in or give up don’t succeed at anything. Persistent personalities are great when their energy is put into productive tasks that will yield positive results, or else it can lead to juvenile delusions and pose great loss to the company.
