Excerpt: Persistence – An Iron Will
| "There are no two words in the English language which stand out more boldly, like kings upon a checker-board, to so great an extent as the words 'I will.'
There is strength, depth and solidity, decision, confidence and power in these two little words. They bring determination, vigor and individuality, into any conversation. The man who says ‘I will’ is a man who believes in his ability to triumph over difficulties, to gain victory in the face of discouragement. He possesses the will, the promise and strength to perform, unfettered aspirations, and is the master over a thousand and one human impulses that would otherwise impede his progress. As one has well said: ‘He who is silent is forgotten; he who does not advance falls back; and he who stops is overwhelmed, out-distanced and crushed. He who ceases to grow and develop, or to become greater - becomes smaller. The man who becomes stationary begins to deteriorate and eventually dies. Inactivity, is the beginning of the end — it precedes death.’ To live is to achieve, to press on, to persist without ceasing." |
