Patience

well, to me difficulties never disappear. if you have perseverance you can overcome them, but trying and trying again, doing your best. patience lets you understand that the real success can never be achieved in just one second, but you need to work and make many efforts, if you want to make it last. to my mind, many people nowadays fell depressed because they do not achieve the results the would like, but it is not a question of having the right skills. they want something and they want it immediately, possibly without a drop of sweat. sometimes they do not even know exactly what they want... they tend to be always looking for some shortcut, wasting valuable time and energy. congratulations for the last two sentences of your discussion, i find them great!
