If one does not possess persistence, one does not achieve noteworthy success - Napoleon Hill. This is true today as it ever will be. We live in a world of instant gratification. Fast food, 5 minute abs, instant downloads, 1 minute meal and other quick fixes. We are also living in a world where we are distracted more than ever. We are having a hundred years worth of information thrown at us in one day, from TV, radio, advertising, social media sites, videos, social groups and peers. These two aspects, instant gratification and distraction, undermine persistence. We want things now, and if we dont, we move on to the next thing. Somethings, however, DO take time. Somethings we DO need to wait for. Somethings we DO need to work towards. Somethings we DO need to grit our teeth and chase after. We will get sidetracked, we will fail, we will feel challenged and we will feel like giving up, but IT WILL BE WORTH IT.
