Do they feel comfortable adapting to change? Are they easily discouraged if they cannot arrive at a solution to a problem?

“Gentlemen in England now abed
Shall think themselves accursed they were not here,
And hold their manhoods cheap whiles any speaks
That fought with us upon Saint Crispin’s day.”
