Persist no matter what - In the journey to greatness
COVID19 has led to a lot of changes in our lives. How do we overcome the urge of giving up when the going gets tough, and there seems to be no results from our efforts? The resolve is to persist.
To persist in doing something—is continuing to take action with determination—despite the difficulties faced—knowing that we are going to achieve success.
When we persist in pursuing our life and career goals, the following will happen:
- You will be MOTIVATED to put more effort towards succeeding. Outcome; you feel proud and accomplished when you see the difference between where you started and the progress you have made.
- You will GAIN experience through failing-learning-and trying again …until you get it right. Outcome; you will gain useful insights on how to manage future projects—knowing that things can go wrong, and when this happens, it is not the end of the road, but another opportunity to do things differently and better.
- You will UNDERSTAND the true value of success. Outcome; when implementing future goals, you will be in a better position to apply hard work and dedication, with the full understanding that both precede success.
We need to set goals so that we can know what to focus on. [Without goals we are on a road that leads to nowhere]. We also need to be prepared to put in extra effort and time to get what we want. [There is nothing like overnight success].
All in all, we should never (ever) give up on trying to create the life we desire. Let’s persist and keep on keeping on.
Much love and all the best!
