"Patience is essential to leadership. Beyond the ability to wait things out, patience is the discipline of learning from your inner experience while you wait for your outer environment to indicate success. And while some will interpret that advice as waiting for external validation, in reality, what I mean is that you have a great intuitive sense that precedes outward manifestations of things. When you slow down enough to learn from that intuitive sense, then you discover the value of patience; then you experience the transformation that only results from the inward journey. Live the medicine. "
