Things won’t get any better if you give up. You won’t get any better if you give up.

The successful way forward is to persist. Persist, and you can turn around the most difficult situation.

Persist, and you learn. Persist, and you become more skilled, better connected and vastly more effective.

Persist, and you will master the difficult, complicated tasks that now frustrate you. Persist, and you gain not only skill but also understanding.

Persistence is not always easy, yet it is always available to you. Persistence is not always pleasant or comfortable, yet it always makes you stronger.

Persist, and you will find the way to get where you most want to go. Persist, and nothing is out of your reach.
