I look at these pictures and can’t fathom how anyone could have the patience to place all those tiny “keys” when I can barely finish reading an article without getting bored and skipping to the next thing. How can I learn patience?


Practice.

I think I would call it focus instead of patience. It's often useful to have a goal that is motivating.


Trick your brain into thinking you'll get a big reward upon finishing the project.


Daughter is an architect. She's been doing origami since early kidhood, and I marvel at the intricacy of the models she now handcrafts. Point being, like anything, the art of patience takes... practice. Tons of practice.
