To be infinitely patient with others and with our poor selves

We must be patient with others, infinitely patient!, but also with our poor selves, remembering that even the Prophets of God sometimes got tired and cried out in despair! .. He urges you to persevere and add up your accomplishments, rather than to dwell on the dark side of things. 
- Shoghi Effendi (From a letter dated September 22, 1929, written on behalf of Shoghi Effendi to an individual believer; The Unfolding Destiny of the British Baha'i Community)
