Staying persistent is often confused with stubbornness, the difference is that the first is intelligent, it means that we are looking for creative solutions and ways to achieve the goal, instead of taking one certain path which might not be the best solution or path to take. Sometimes what we see as stubbornness can actually be persistence mixed with smartness which we try not to give up on the creative ways to achieve our goals.
The greatest virtue to success is not knowledge or intelligence, but rather the courage and the persistence to move forward in spite of the pain of failure.
A lot has been written on persistence and overcoming failures over the years, but what I intend to present here, is that the greatest virtue to success is not knowledge or intelligence as many might think, but rather the courage and the persistence to move forward in spite of the pain of failure. Nobody is born with knowledge and intelligence, and we can’t let our ego convince us otherwise. After all, failures and their lessons are the building blocks of success. If we’re scared of the failures, then we’re scared of the success that could come by afterward.
Persistent is getting up one more time than you got knocked down. It's remaining positive, staying on the path of self-belief, when everybody has given up on you. Persistent is making something from nothing. It's seeing an opportunity when others have not, it's taking small steps toward your goals every day. Persistent is trying again when you think you have already tried. Persistent is finding solutions, it's working through the difficult times, and it's it that allows us to push through any barrier that may be thrown in our path.
We want to achieve things in life, we say we do this or that, and we often do not. Why is that?
It's because we do not pay enough attention to self improvement, we only live in the day to day business and forget about improving ourselves. We can't go on like this, in order to achieve our goals in the future, we need to be smart and brave enough in order to pursue our dreams in the present.
To be honest speaking, It's not an easy thing for us, especially when we are trapped in the monotonous life for a long time, but we must keep trying and keep improving ourselves.
When you want to do something, you need to find a way to do it. The biggest pitfall for us is just we give up easily, we can't take action at critical moment and we aren't smart enough. The tough road is the road of inventing something new and keeping improving oneself.
I’m a firm believer that if you set goals and put work towards those goals, then you will achieve them. That’s how it works, It doesn't matter who you are or what you do. If you don’t have a plan or a strategy to get from point A to point B, then you will never get there. To be successful at anything in life be it a business, personal relationship, hobby or whatever; have a plan to achieve it. It is very important to never stop being determined and just do whatever it takes to get what you want.
You must also have a positive attitude and be smart in your approach. If you have the right mindset with the right plan it will eventually pay off. You just have to be persistent with whatever it is that you want to accomplish. Don’t give up easily and realize it’s going to take time and hard work to succeed at what you want to do.
You can’t wait for your vision to be realized; you need to build the habit of working every day to achieve results that lead you to achieve the goal.
When it comes to transforming your life and making the big changes you know you need to make, it can be easy to fall into the trap of thinking that it's soon enough that you should start living the high-quality life that you want. When you actually start living this new lifestyle, you will soon find out that the change process is harder than you could've wished for. Every day it becomes more and more of a challenge to sustain the commitment needed to change, without some deadline to motivate you.
It is high time to work smarter. Not harder. It is high time you developed your habits. Learn to optimize your routine to getting the result you want. Change a little bit at a time to develop over time.
