Confidence and faith play a crucial role in survival as evident in a soldier's successful evasion for five months. Lack of faith leads to inadequate preparations, hindering survival. Patience is another key factor, as impatience can jeopardize one's safety during evasion. Maintaining composure and exhibiting patience, as demonstrated by the soldier watching patrols for days and remaining calm when encountering enemies, is critical for survival. Conversely, lack of patience can lead to impulsive decisions that result in undesired outcomes, as seen in the soldier's impatience leading to capture.
