11. Make Patience Your Virtue

Successful people don't reach important decisions in a hurry. They take their time to do a risk assessment, so they're ready when it's time to move. They are proactive and make their environment work for them instead of letting circumstances dictate to them. Being patient is a great virtue and skill to have as you can achieve goals step-by-step instead of rushing and grabbing and missing your goals by a mile as a result.
