To succeed, you must have tremendous perseverance, tremendous will.

To succeed, you must have tremendous perseverance, tremendous will. “I will drink the ocean,” says the persevering soul; “at my will mountains will crumble up.” Have that sort of energy, that sort of will; work hard, and you will reach the goal.-Swami Vivekananda To succeed you must have very great perseverance, very great will and these are exercised by the size of your belief. If you believe you can't make it in life you will end up being a failure in life and if believe that you can make it in life you will end up being successful. Belief brings forth expectation and when that expectation is delayed brings forth perseverance and the choice to keep going despite encountering obstacles brings forth will. You have to grow in the strength of you might so that your confidence will be astonishing that you can declare “I will drink the ocean,” says the persevering soul; “at my will mountains will crumble up.” Having that sort of energy, that sort of will; working hard, and you wi

The most essential quality to success.

I do not think that there is any other quality so essential to success of any kind as the quality of perseverance. It overcomes almost everything, even nature.-John D. Rockefeller The most essential quality to success is perseverance if you want to be a winner you must persevere through temporary defeat because losers quit when they are met with temporary defeat. Perseverance means persistence in doing something despite difficulty or delay in achieving success. To overcome you have to persist until you succeed since perseverance overcomes almost everything, even nature.

There are two ways of attaining an important end.

There are two ways of attaining an important end, force and perseverance; the silent power of the latter grows irresistible with time.-Sophie Swetchine Force can be attributed by strength or energy and starting something important it will require you to input a lot of energy or strength to make it start moving and be active. There are two ways of attaining an important end and it requires one to start something with force and persevere through time. The silent power of perseverance grows too powerful or convincing to be resisted with time.

Do not stop.

Image
It does not matter how slowly you go as long as you do not stop.-Confucius Don't stop moving forward since we don't judge a tortoise by its speed but its persistence and they live longer because of their slow metabolism. Sometime we may start something and feel the pressure that is trying to pull us back but if we persist and keep on believing and going after our dream it will pay off later on more than we could ever imagine since having a smooth ride when you start will make you end up having a tough time later on in life. If an eagle would not fight off gravity to fly it would forever be a companion of chickens. The opposition is your opportunity there is where you will find your glory. Therefore if your life is easy now later on it will be hard and if your life is hard now it will be easy later on since we don't grow with praise but with opposition.

A river cuts through rock.

A river cuts through rock, not because of its power, but because of its persistence.-Jim Watkins The only thing that can guarantee you success is persistence since money can end, you can lose your enthusiasm and you can lose friends but persistence will keep you going in the right direction. Many people start something and later on start to wonder why they are not seeing the impact that they are working so hard to produce so they get impatient and give up. Success does not come because we are powerful but because we are persistent and if you are asked to choose between power and persistence please choose persistence because only persistence will guarantee success. Therefore a river cuts through a tough situation not because of its power, but because of its persistence in short aim to have the same character as the river.

Sacrifice and perseverance.

Image
You aren’t going to find anybody that’s going to be successful without making a sacrifice and without perseverance.-Lou Holtz Success requires someone to sacrifice and persevere. Sacrifice is to give up something valued for the sake of other considerations and in other words, it means losing something of a lower nature to gain something of a higher nature. Therefore nobody can be successful without making a sacrifice and without perseverance. Sometimes we might be feeling that we are losing everything when we have to sacrifice and we see we can't gain something better and the fear of taking a risk may hold us from making a sacrifice. It is crucial for us to teach ourselves that sacrifice is good and one has to sow a seed to gain something in harvest time.

Courage doesn’t always roar.

Courage doesn’t always roar, sometimes it’s the quiet voice at the end of the day whispering  I will try again tomorrow .-Mary Anne Radmacher Most of us fall into a ditch while we are pursuing success and come to a halt and think that we have come to the end of the road and it's time to leave the journey. Courage will not always come highly motivated with a roar, sometimes it’s the quiet voice at the end of the day whispering I will try again tomorrow. The courage to persevere through the difficult times is what is needed to achieve success because many people experience failure because they quit earlier on. Successful people persevere when they are met with temporary failure and are courageous enough to try it one more time.

Success is the child of drudgery and perseverance.

Success is the child of drudgery and perseverance. It cannot be coaxed or bribed; pay the price and it is yours.-Orison Swett Marden Hard menial work and perseverance bring forth success. You can't cheat your way to success since success cannot be coaxed or bribed; pay the price and it is yours. Many people like to take shortcuts to achieve and if you cheat to be successful you will be soon found out and you will be ashamed. There is nothing that's hidden that will not be put in the light since the truth will stand the test of time; lies are soon exposed. Therefore success cannot be coaxed or bribed and paying the price is the only way to attain success. To win one needs to sacrifice something of a lower nature to trade it with something of a higher nature. The price of success requires one to sacrifice time, resources and effort.

The real glory.

Image
The real glory is being knocked to your knees and then coming back. That’s real glory. That’s the essence of it.-Vince Lombardi The real glory in getting knocked to rock bottom means the only way to go is up. Life is hard and sometimes we can get overwhelmed by the difficulty we encounter and we might get knocked to our knees and feel like giving up but the real glory is coming back up. That is the real glory because when one's mind, is stretched by a new idea, it never regains its original size. That is the essence of it. For though the righteous fall seven times, they rise again.

If you only work a little at a time.

Image
When you have a great and difficult task, something perhaps almost impossible, if you only work a little at a time, every day a little, suddenly the work will finish itself.-Isak Dinesen When we first come and encounter a difficult task we tend to retreat from the difficult task and we end up picturing the task to be impossible. The word impossible when it is broken up means I'm possible and hence we should believe all things are possible to those who believe. Faith without action is dead so if you only work a little at a time this will indicate that you have faith and if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, 'Move from here to there,' and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you. Therefore we must put a little effort every day and the work will finish itself.

Keep going.

Image
If you are going through hell, keep going.-Winston Churchill If you are going through a tough situation, keep going because of tough times never last but tough people do. Be tough enough to encounter whatever bad situation you are going through and sometimes you might feel like giving up but nothing can take the place of perseverance. Therefore persist until you succeed since no one can hide from feeling pain even if you hide under your bed pain will find you there. One needs to take a bold step and confront the obstacle and rectify the mistake and keep on going. 

Perseverance is a great element of success.

Perseverance is a great element of success. If you only knock long enough and loud enough at the gate, you are sure to wake up somebody.-Henry Wadsworth Longfellow Don't knock once and assume that opportunity left a long time ago but if you only knock long enough and loud enough at the gate, you are sure to wake up somebody. Perseverance will keep you long enough knocking since it is a great element of success. Therefore don't give up on your goal quickly because opportunity has not yet opened the door but keep on knocking until you wake up the opportunity and if you believe it is possible for you. You will be knocking long enough and loud enough until you get an answer.

If you can’t fly then run.

Image
If you can’t fly then run, if you can’t run then walk, if you can’t walk then crawl, but whatever you do you have to keep moving forward.-Martin Luther King, Jr. The plan to win always requires us to always move forward to achieve the goal. Many people park in life when they receive minor hits in life and anxiety leads to depression. Therefore we should never give up and let negativity win because all things are possible to those who believe. The mind controls the body and one should not be defeated in the mind since the mind is the battlefield. Your mindset will make you a winner or a loser so we have to be vigilant in our thinking and only meditate on the positive things to win. Your mindset will keep you running if you can't fly, walking if you can't run, crawling if you can't walk and moreover it will keep you moving forward in whatever you do.

Through perseverance many people win success.

Image
Through perseverance many people win success out of what seemed destined to be certain failure.-Benjamin Disraeli Perseverance is the ability to stick to something despite encountering obstacles or it can be a delay in achieving success. Sometimes we may think that getting out of a project before it ends up as a failure is the best exit route. This means you were harboring the thoughts of being a failure even before you started since winners never quit and quitters never win. So you have to always think of yourself as a winner even if you are in a dire situation. Success comes out of what seemed to be destined to be a certain failure and through perseverance, many people can win success.
