Nothing in the world can take the place of Persistence

Nothing in the world can take the place of Persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men 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

Perseverance does not always mean sticking to the same thing forever. It means giving full concentration and effort to whatever 

you are doing, right now! It means doing the tough things first and looking downstream for gratification and rewards. It means being 

happy in your work, but hungry for more knowledge and progress. It meansmaking more calls, going more miles, pulling more 

weeds, getting up earlier in the day and always being on the lookout for a better way of doing what you’re doing. Perseverance is 

success through trial and error.
