Courage is the quality of mind that enables us to risk what we value for a higher purpose. They are interconnected. Patience, courage and fortitude especially share common requirements. Patience, however, as we see it, does not relate as much to fear of risking something, as does courage. Nor does it relate as much to enduring through action as does fortitude.
Patience is more about waiting, tolerating, and forgiving.
We are patient when we give others their own space and time. People who are patient are not easily provoked or revengeful and tend to remain calm during stressful situations. An honest person, in our opinion, does what he or she says. Honesty is about being trustworthy. The passion is about sincerity and the discipline relates to the five inner skills in the conceptual model.
