The balance between endurance and struggle, waiting implies action in the future. No jumping in where angels fear to tread and no digging down in a fox hole. Just quiet, thoughtful planning before you make a move. Like a game of chess, every strategy and countermove must be thought out before the first piece is touched. This is the mark of a successful overcomer of problems; the ability to stay calm and rational and still make a decision."}
