The Reward of Persistence

Persistence is it own reward.

Every time you force yourself to persist on a task, whether it is large or small, you feel happier and better about yourself.

When you go extra mile and do more than you are paid for or more than is expected, your self-esteem goes up.

You feel more powerful and in greater control of your life.

In your career, when you go the extra mile you put yourself on the side of the angels.
The primary difference between winners and *losers * in life is simple:

Winners never quite and quitters never win.

You can increase your ability to persist by talking to yourself positively.

Say these words: “I am unstoppable” before you begin any major undertaking.
Preprogram yourself by telling yourself,

“I never give up”.

Before you can achieve anything worthwhile in life, you have to pass “the persistence test”.
This is usually a snap quiz sprung on you unexpectedly with no warning.

You suddenly face a major

• Setback,
• Problem,
• Temporary failure or
• Even a complete disaster.

When this happens, remind yourself that this is the “Testing Time”.

This is when you demonstrate what you are really made of.

This is when you show yourself and others the strength of your character and your true determination to succeed.
