PERSEVERE


Sitting at the island counter-top in the frat pad, eating, writing, blogging, reading (the Last of the Mohicans), I notice a page of paper, stained and wrinkled; obviously been there for awhile.  It's one of those "adages" that someone found inspiring and printed it off and set on the counter as a reminder to themselves to be diligent in pursuing their goal-s.

I think it's worth pondering:

Nothing in the world will take the place
of perseverance.

TALENT WILL NOT:
Nothing is more common than
 unsuccessful people 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!



What say you?

  2. Very true. I also think it helps to get over our fears in order to do the things we want to do.
