Lack of persistence is one of the major causes of failure.
Moreover, experience with thousands of people has proved
that lack of persistence is a weakness common to the majority of men.
It is a weakness which may be overcome by effort.
The ease with which lack of persistence may be conquered
will depend entirely upon the intensity of one’s desire.
The starting point of all achievement is desire.
Keep this constantly in mind.
Weak desires bring weak results,
just as a small amount of fire makes a small amount of heat.
If you find yourself lacking in persistence,
this weakness may be remedied by building a stronger fire under your desires.
*You Can Train Yourself to Be Persistent
Persistence is a state of mind, therefore it can be cultivated.
Like all states of mind, persistence is based upon definite causes,
among them these:-
a)Definiteness of purpose
Knowing what one wants ins the first
and, perhaps, the most important step toward the development of persistence.
b)Desire
c)Self-reliance
d)Definiteness of plans
e)Accurate knowledge
f)Cooperation
Sympathy, understanding, and harmonious cooperation
with others tend to develop persistence.
g)Will-power
h)Habit
*How to Develop Persistence
1.A definite purpose backed by burning desire for its fulfillment.
2.A definite plan, expressed in continuous action.
3.A mind closed tightly against all negative and discouraging influences.
4.A friendly alliance with one or more persons
who will encourage one to follow through with both plan and purpose.
