Hunting and fishing

Hunting and fishing are both activities that teach much more than just getting outdoors and doing an activity. I love them both because of the hard work you have to put in even though the chances of being successful maybe very low. These two things have taught me the value of patience and passion which I believe makes me better in very sense and it also has helped me translate those skills into my work life as well. We can't always expect the good when working hard but its that much sweeter when we do achieve greatness.
