I firmly believe that
any man's finest hour, the greatest fulfillment of all that he holds
dear, is that moment when he has worked his heart out in a good cause
and lies exhausted on the field of battle - victorious.

Patience to the Servant-Leader should imply an active
pursuit of excellence in the face of unrealized goals and expectations. The
Servant-leader must model determination and persistence in times of
struggle.
“Be quick, but don’t be in a hurry”.---Coach Wooden |

As Coach Wooden has said, “You must condition your team to love the
struggle”. Patience, determination, and persistence all require the leader
to acknowledge the reasons for failure, and place the burden of corrective
action on the shoulders of the leader. The amount of change required and the
rate of change to effect will vary greatly. A patient leader will know when
and how to apply both.
