Good day. Trust you are having a great time living.
Exercising your resolves and engaging in processes that will better improve
your living status.
Permit me to intrude a bit and share one of my Telecast’s
teaching on the subject: THE REWARD OF PERSEVERANCE!
The most obvious evidence between a winner and somebody we
all may consider a loser is the finish line. Most times, it’s not who crosses
first, but whether they ever cross at all.
The reality is this, life is no 100metres dash, it is a
marathon and not necessarily a competition, but a path we all must individually
advance the course of our action.
So in the light of this opener, let me say that life only
reward those who persevere. You can’t quit at the sight of every obstacle and
expect a reward. You don’t go through
life quitting everything. If you’re going to achieve anything you’ve got to
stick with something.

Clinging Fist |
“Stick with something” is the echoes of the game. It is best
to describe perseverance as “commitment until death do you part”…letting only
the parting gap between yourself and the task at hand be death. Cling to a
course until you choke the success out of it.
Robert Brault insightfully puts it this way, “stubbornly
persist and you will find that the limits of your stubbornness go well beyond
the stubbornness of your limits.”
Of all forms of discipline staying power is one that every
project initiator should possess, for it’s impossible to give credibility to
any task that is not properly executed.
I personally think that every time a person embarks on any
undertaking, he should mentally drag it to life’s marriage registry and then
whisper loud to the hearing of his tripartite nature the words – “until death
do me part”, only then will life with its limited arsenals, after a while, give
up on you and go seeking another “human prey”, if you stay true to your
ideology.
It is true that the road to success is dotted with many
tempting parking places. But you must stay on the main lane, if you are
targeting the finish line.
Listen, with ordinary ability and talent, but with
extraordinary perseverance, all things are attainable no matter how difficult
it may seem.
The simple fact remains, “he conquers who endures.”
Behold the immortal lines of Calvin Coolidge on the potency
of forthright determination:
“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.”
POINT TO RUMINATE ON: “The greatest oak was once a little
nut that held its ground.”
