Persistence

Success has a romantic touch with fervor to implant blindness. It brings down a curtain of illusion that we are good. Maybe we are not good but mere lucky. It happens. We have seen many a time this phenomenon of beginner’s-luck.

This nebulous thought failed so many amateur sales folks from becoming great sales leaders, so many start-ups from becoming great business, so on and so forth. Sheer happiness and feeling good without a will to better ourselves has a demonic effect, which actuates self-limiting arrogance.

Everyone has idea and a power to make a winning living. Some succeed. Some fail. Some failures even succeed later even though they were not lucky in the first stage. What made them different? Simple answer is persistence.

We are best at what we can control and what we can influence to bring a change to our method, manner and motivation in attaining our goal. And there are only three things i.e. our idea, our work and our persistence.

Luck does not have a place in this list.
