In today's society we are accustomed to instant gratification and convenience items that are used to make our lives easier. Patience is almost a lost art.
In Amish culture, the opposite is true. Convenience items are avoided for one major reason, family. From an Amish standpoint, building strong family ties relies on the family working together to complete a task. This task would not be a bonding experience with the use of modern convenience.
In a more modern culture, there are people that go out of their way to do things the hard way. This is generally not done due to boredom, but rather due to keeping true to a craft.
Either way, both of these situations require patience. Describe a time when you had to harness your available patience when making something or completing a task.
