The class was silent for a few moments, each child staring eagerly at the toffee in front of them and with each passing moment it was getting harder for them to stop themselves. Ten minutes passed and the teacher came and inspected the classroom. There were 7 children in the whole class, whose coffees were still there, while all the other children were eating the coffee and commenting on its color and taste. The teacher secretly noted the names of these seven children in his diary. And started teaching.
The teacher's name was Professor Walter Mashal.
A few years later, the teacher opened the same diary and started researching the names of these 7 children. After a lot of struggle, it is known about him that he has reached many steps of success in his life and he is counted among the successful people.
Professor Walter also examined the rest of the students in his class, finding that the majority of them were living a normal life, while there were some individuals who were facing harsh economic and social conditions.
The result of all this effort and research was summed up by Professor Walter in one sentence and that was this.
"A person who cannot be patient for ten minutes cannot progress in life".
This research received worldwide recognition and its name was _"Marshmallow Theory", because the toffee that Professor Walter gave to children was called "Marshmallow". It was as soft as foam.
According to this theory, among the most successful people in the world, there is also a quality of "patience" among many qualities, because this quality increases the endurance of a person, thanks to which a person is tough. He is not disappointed even in the circumstances and thus he becomes an extraordinary personality.
