PERSISTENCE
SECRET OF STRENGTH
Persistence is a refusal to quit. It is looking into the face of
adversity and saying “I like my odds.” It is an unwillingness to move aside. It
is like believing in a cause and being distracted by nothing. If you have a goal
and you are striving to reach it, keep an unbeatable
combination of three ‘P’s as your secret
strength. These three ‘P’s can only lead you to your destination. They are:-
(i)
Patience
(ii)
Persistence
(iii)
Perspiration.
Someone said “Genius is less inspiration and more perspiration,”
TRYST WITH DESTINY
Success seems to be connected with action.
Successful people invariably have relentless struggles at their backgrounds. So
keep moving. The mistakes and failures are possible, but don’t quit. You have a
tryst with your destiny. Solemnly promise to yourself that you will not quit. They say ‘God helps them who help themselves.’ The moment you are ready to quit is usually the moment right before
a miracle happens. Always believe that something wonderful is about to happen.
Such belief will give you strength in tightest corners of
life. Believe that
every moment of persistence is bringing your dreams closer and closer within
your grasp. The greatest pleasure in life is doing what people say you cannot
do. If you persist long enough you will win. So, persistence is the key word. I
am not telling you it is going to be easy. I’m only telling you it’s going to
be worth it. I have a very power-packed quote, from Calvin Coolidge, for you. Not only read it but
write it down somewhere so that it is always available to refresh your mind
about your promise to yourself.
“Nothing in this world can take the place of persistence.
Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men and women
with talent.
Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb.
Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. PERSISTENCE
and determination alone are omnipotent.
The slogan “press on” has solved and always will solve the problems of
the human race.”
PRESS ON
Keep going! No matter what you do, no
matter how many times you screw up and think to yourself that there is no point
to carry on or no matter how many people tell you that you can’t do it – keep
going. Don’t quit. Don’t quit because a few months from now you will be that
much closer to your goal than you are now. Yesterday you said tomorrow. Make
today count. No matter how many mistakes you make or how slow you progress you
are still way ahead of every one who is not trying. So “PRESS ON”
