PERSISTENCE: THE KEY TO SUCCESS.

PERSISTENCE: THE KEY TO SUCCESS

Success is not a citizen of any nation or tribe. The above phrase is in agreement with the scripture in the book of Ruth 1:16, the account of Ruth and her mother in-law (Naomi).

The above biblical story has really repelled and propelled me as a young man to cultivate the habit of persistence. In the early 2000, when I gained an understanding of the concept, I begin to develop a routine for persistency by maintaining the culture of not taking ‘NO’ for an answer. And this has really helped me to develop principle that has really contributed to my personal development in Leadership and field of endeavours.

        What is persistence if someone may ask? Persistence is one refusing to say or take no for an answer when faced with daunting challenges or crisis.

It could be in Leadership, Management, Academics, Career, and Business and so on. With persistency in place, you can develop the ability and momentum to convince your Clients/Customers or even Business partners in the business world and vice versa.

        Persistence is an essential factor in transmitting desire and passion into its monetary equivalent. And fully a product of desire, plan and action, which is also called the 3P’s according to Calvin Collidge;

*Passion -    Desire

*Purpose-    Specific plan

*Pursuit-      Action

The above 3P’s puts together guarantees prosperity (success) in any field of endeavours.

I.e. Passion + Purpose + Pursuit = Prosperity.

And these 3P’s when paired together, always end up producing wealth and real success.

        It was believed that, 90% of people quit at 90% of accomplishing their goals/objectives according to Thomas Edison a renowned scientist, but reverse is the case in this present time, where it is believed that, 99% of people quit a mere 20% of the way/journey to success.

The reality of life is that, those who persist win, while those who do not loose.

        You must take note; passion and faith are the fuel that produces persistence. Which in turn guarantee one’s success in life? And the gospel truth is, success is not negotiable and winning is not everything but the only thing in life, business and all other field of endeavours.

Persistence; the only force that turns stumbling block into stepping stones on one’s pathway to achieving success and wealth.

        Succinctly, persistence and determination are the omnipotent. This is because, if you fail to persist, you will persist in failing. Persistence produce success, while every man’s success in life is a combination of idea’s fully backed up by energy and persistence

I.e. Success = Ideas + Energy+ Persistence.

Beloved, Success is yours in as much as you can display persistence at its peak.
