James 1:2-4

This morning I read,

"Count it all joy, my brothers and sisters, when you meet trials of various kinds, for you know that the testing of your faith produces steadfastness. And let steadfastness have its full effect, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing."

What is the full effect of steadfastness? What does it look like to let steadfastness have its full effect? It implies that we can cut steadfastness short. So what does that look like?
