The power to hold on in spite of everything, the power to endure - this is the winner 5 quality. Persistence is the ability to face defeat again and again without giving up --to push on in the face of great difficulty, knowing that victory can be yours. Persistence means taking pains to overcome every obstacle, and to do what's necessary to reach your goals.Never, never, never give up!
GEORGE S. PATTONI do not think there is any other quality so essential to success of any kind as the quality of perseverance. It over-comes almost everything, even nature.
JOHN D. ROCKEFELLERWhat this power is I cannot say; all I know is that it exists and it becomes available only when a man is in that state of mind in which he knows exactly what he wants and is fully determined not to quit until he finds it.
ALEXANDER GRAHAM BELLOur greatest glory is not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall.
CONFUCIUSWether you think you can or think you can't-you are right.
HENRY FORDHistory has demonstrated that the most notable winners usually encountered heartbreaking obstacles before they triumphed. They won because they refused to become discouraged by their defeats.
B.C. FORBESSuccess... seems to be connected with action. Successful men keep moving. They make mistakes, but they don't quit.
CONRAD HILTONSuccess seems to be largely a matter of hanging on after others have let go.
WILLIAM FEATHEREffort only fully releases its reward after a person refuses to quit.
NAPOLEON HILLMost people give up just when they're about to achieve success. They quit on the one yard line. They give up at the last minute of the game one foot from a winning touchdown.
H. ROSS PEROTAll great achievements require time.
DAVID JOSEPH SCHWARTZIt's the constant and determined effort that breaks down all resistance, sweeps away all obstacles.
CLAUDE M. BRISTOLSuccess is failure turned inside out, The silver tint of the clouds of doubt, And you never can tell how close you are, It may be near when it seems so far. So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit, It's when things seem worse, That you must not quit.
UNKNOWNFew things are impossible to diligence and skill... Great works are performed not by strength, but perseverance.
SAMUEL JOHNSONThe rewards for those who persevere far exceed the pain that must precede the victory.
TED ENGSTROMIf you can force your heart and nerve and sinew to serve your turn long after they are gone, And so hold on when there is nothing in you Except the Will which says to them: "Hold on!"
RUDYARD KIPLINGNothing 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.
