The difference between a patient person and an impatient person akin to the difference between a weak, bony person and a strong, muscular weightlifter.

In the latter case, you can see the difference physically. Just by looking, you can spot the weak and the strong person.

But in the former case, you cannot spot the patient or impatient person by sight alone. You have to find the person in some tough situation which will bring out the character, if it is present.

A patient person is like that weightlifter who has worked hard on the mental muscles and gotten strong. But it can only been witnessed in trying situations.

Being fit physically is easier than being patient because you can show off your body but you cannot show off your patience. That is why people often admire and envy a patient person because spotting such a person is that much rare.
