Choose one fitness trait

What fitness trait is the most important to you?
There are four components of fitness: speed, strength, endurance, flexibility. (There might be more than those four but they are the main things I think of.) We all make choices on which aspects of fitness to work on. So which one do you choose to focus on?
I know that we can improve all of them but just for the sake of this question, let's pretend we can't. If you choose to focus on speed, you will be come above average in speed, but below average in strength, endurance and flexibility. If you choose strength, you will become above average in strength, but below average in speed, flexibility and endurance. Etc, ect.
Pick one and only one.
For me, I think I would choose flexibility. I find it incredible what really flexible people in yoga can do. I have flexibility-envy.

If I had to pick only one it would be endurance.0

Endurance for me, too. I'd like to be able to hike up a trail without stopping to catch my breath every few minutes.0
