Persistence Beats Resistance

"Patience, persistence and perspiration make an unbeatable combination for success." - Napoleon Hill


"Nothing in this 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." - Calvin Coolidge


"A great leader once told me 'Persistence beats resistance'. And after working at Facebook, Intel and Microsoft and starting my own company, I've learned two major lessons: All great things take time, and you must persist no matter what. That's what it takes to be a leader: willingness to go beyond where others will stop." - Noah Kagan 


“If you can't fly then run, if you can't run then walk, if you can't walk then crawl, but whatever you do you have to keep moving forward.” - Martin Luther King Jr.


One day a garden snail hitched a ride from a giant tortoise. They came by a slug who was also keen to take a ride.

By the by when the slug was settled on the tortoise's back, the snail quipped, "Hang on tight. This tortoise is really fast!!"
