These are the words of the most popular American Poet in the 19th century Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
Perseverance is an attitude of persisting one single idea, discipline, ideal, rules to achieve success, to achieve a goal- in spite of facing n- number of difficulties, obstructions, hurdles, failures etc.
Success in life does not come easily!!
There are numbers of failures and hurdles, you have to pass through them before you achieve something worthwile in life. The only undying quality imbibed in every successful man, is the quality of perseverance. It is this quality which makes even the most impossible task possible.
There is an apt saying that “Fire is the test of Gold and Adversity is the test of Man”. The key to success in any field is perseverance and single minded effort to achieve the Goal. Success is like a ladder where you have to climb step by step and do a lot of hard work to reach the top. You have to pass through many difficulties and hurdles but the fruits will always be 100% sweet. We should not lose heart when we had failed in any of our endeavour. We should not be disheartened and feel helpless. In spite of setback, if we continue to work hard, sincerely and in right direction with team spirit, we will surely achieve our Goal.
The ability to keep on keeping on, even when our efforts are met with disappointment or failure, is an ability that can make all the differences in this world. And that’s the definition of perseverance: to keep on keeping on.
It comes from being committed to your goal, and from believing in yourself and in your goal’s possibility. It borrows strength from resilience and optimism and brushes elbows with courage
So Stop Stopping and Keep on Keeping on and you will achieve your goal through perseverance.
