Perseverance

Perseverance, secret of all triumphs.

(Victor Hugo, French poet)

Perseverance is the great divider between those who quit and those who are successful.

Finishing

Do not plan for ventures before finishing what's at hand.

(Euripides, Ancient Greek play writer)

By finishing what's in front of you first and making sure it's correct the first time, you will save your self time and effort.

Defeats

There are some defeats more triumphant than victories.

(Michel de Montaigne, French Renaissance writer)

Defeats are just temporary setbacks that lead to triumph.

Mental Toughness

Concentration and mental toughness are the margins of victory.

(Bill Russell, member of the NBA hall of fame)

Without mental toughness nothing in society would ever get accomplished because people would give up what they hope to achieve for any little thing.

Appear Attractive

Laziness may appear attractive, but work gives satisfaction.

(Anne Frank, German-born Jewish girl and Holocaust victim)

It takes just as much work if not more, to get out of doing work than to just do the work.
