The final step to getting what you want is to persist. Nothing worth having is ever easy. There will be times in any project when things don’t go to plan. You will have to problem solve at every step. If you quit at the first barrier or even the 200th, you won’t succeed. The bigger the goal, the more barriers you will encounter. The only way to get what you want is to keep trying, especially when times get tough.
As Calvin Coolidge said
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 alone are omnipotent. The slogan ‘Press On’ has solved and always will solve the problems of the human race.This from a man who became President of the United States.
Even with the best motivation, there are still times when you may feel tempted to go back to old habits. Why?>
