“If you are patient… and wait long enough… Nothing will happen”

“Wait long enough and people will surprise and impress you.”
Randy Pausch book The Last Lecture
When Pausch spoke of "when you’re screwing up and nobody’s saying anything to you anymore, that means they gaveup." he was quoting Jon Snoddy http://www.snoddy.net/ <br class="br">The Last Lecture (2007) <br class="br">Context: Wait long enough and people will surprise and impress you. He said, when you are pissed off at somebody, and you're angry at them, you just haven't given them enough time. Just give them a little more time — and they'll almost always impress you. And that really stuck with me. I think he's absolutely right on that one.
