SUCCESS


The secret to success is to learn to do what you cannot do,
practice doing what you have to do even if you don't want to,
and stubbornly, patiently, and adequately complete the necessary tasks
that will achieve objectives that will eventually lead to the successful achievement
of YOUR PREDETERMINED, WORTHWHILE GOALS. 
~ Perman Wilson

There is an old saying that goes, "It is impossible to succeed without suffering."
Thus, failure becomes the final test of persistence. 
He who has never failed has also never succeeded.

It is impossible for success to be easy.
Success is difficult; it is gut-wrenching, it is pain-inducing;
and it is built upon inconvenience.

Success is a marathon, not a sprint.
Success seems to follow a kind of NATURAL SELECTION process.
Only those individuals who are willing to repeatedly try after repeatedly failing,
those who refuse to let defeat keep them down,
those who seem to know that success can be theirs if they just stay with it long enough,
finally win the fruits of life.

After failing many times in her bid for political office, former Congresswoman Shirley Chisholm 
gave a clue to her secret of success: "The thing to try when all else fails is AGAIN."

Most men and women who have hit their mark will admit that just as they felt they were finally reaching
the point in life on which they had set their hearts, the rug was pulled out from under them
and they found themselves back at the beginning.

Only those who can hang in there long after the crowd has left will drink from the victor's cup. 

REPEATED VICTORIES OVER YOUR PROBLEMS ARE THE RUNGS ON YOUR LADDER OF SUCCESS. 
MAKE YOUR BREAKING POINT YOUR TURNING POINT.
