"Persistence is the twin sister of excellence. One is a matter
of quality; the other, a matter of time." -- Marabel Morgan
"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 are omnipotent." --
Calvin Coolidge
"Formulate and stamp indelibly on your mind a mental picture
of yourself as succeeding. Hold this picture tenaciously.
Never permit it to fade. Your mind will seek to develop the
picture...Do not build up obstacles in your imagination." --
Norman Vincent Peale
"Defeat may test you; it need not stop you. If at first you
don't succeed, try another way. For every obstacle there is a
solution. Nothing in the world can take the place of
persistence. The greatest mistake is giving up." -- Author
Unknown
"Failure will never overtake you if your determination to
succeed is strong enough." -- Og Mandino
"It is only when the cold season comes that we know the pine
and cypress to be evergreens." -- Confucius
"Making money requires an exuberance and an intensity that's
impossible to generate or sustain unless you're enjoying
yourself enormously." -- Ken Blanchard
"Even in the face of a total lack of encouragement, much more
often than you'd think, sheer persistence is the difference
between success and failure." -- Donald Trump
"Every adversity, every failure and every heartache carries
with it the Seed of an equivalent or a greater Benefit." --
Napoleon Hill
"Resilience. We all need it. Whether it's health, marriage,
family, business, social, or personal." -- Jim Rohn
"Effort only releases its reward after a person refuses to
quit." -- Napoleon Hill
The real glory is being knocked to your knees and then coming
back." -- Vince Lombardi
