People skills are probably one of the most sought after qualities in any relational-based job.  Surely, high EQ is something that will stand the individual who possesses it in good stead.  However, what I feel is perhaps more challenging is the qualities of long-suffering and patience -- the ability to both 'suffer' through difficult interactions, and yet be patient enough to persist through its necessity.  Surely, that is a more laudable quality no?



Abstract -- Probably half an Olympic logo, but I shall leave it to your imagination to guess what it really is =)
