I have one that never gets said, but I think it would help tremendously: A love of the natural world. If you're the type of person who truly enjoys nature and can appreciate its qualities, then I think you would be much more calm while stuck in it. Indeed, you may not even want to use the word "stuck" but instead consider it an unplanned vacation.
