I would like to say that there are a lot of situations that come in my life when I have to show patience. You can say that I am actually a patient person because I have shown patience a lot in my life, and I would like to tell you about my experience when I was explaining to my friend about complex programming in computer science. One of my friends asked for my help. So halfway through, I decided to tell him about that particular solution. When I started explaining it to him in different ways, I explained from all aspects, but he didn't understand it very well. I thought that maybe I was not explaining it in a really good way, but then I explained again with a different method so that he could grasp it quickly. However, he didn't; maybe he was not paying attention or he lacked understanding of the topic. I taught him three to four times, but still, he didn't get it. I was fed up with explaining those things to my friend, but eventually, I thought I should give him a real example compared to the theoretical way. So I decided to share my own experience about how I managed to learn these things. After that, he understood very well because of the real-life situation. So at that time, I had to be very patient.
