Hello everyone, @kayceesuave here again.
Today on Wisdom for Daily Living, I'll be talking about "The Five Enemies of Perseverance".
Perseverance is a trait that can be cultivated and the initial step to developing it is to eliminate its five greatest enemies.
- Lifestyle of Giving Up.
If you desire to be successful and to maximize your talent, you need to be consistent and persistent.
Talents without perseverance never comes to full fruition.
Opportunities without persistence will be lost.
- Wrong Belief That Success is a Destination.
NBA's Pat Riley writes in his book, "Complacency is the last hurdle any winner and team must overcome before attaining potential greatness".
- Wrong Belief That Life Should Be Easy.
The most successful people are those who don't give up and yield to failure.
- Lack of Resiliency.
"You can't get much done in life if you only work on the days you feel good"
— Jerry West.
- Lack of Vision.
Everything that is created is actually created twice. First it is created mentally; then it is created physically.
Mental creation comes from the vision.
