Be a Winner in Life...Perseverance...

Here is Part 2 of the series, continued from Be a Winner in Life...

One of the important traits of a winner is Perseverance. Like actress Julie Andrews once said, "Perseverance is failing 19 times and succeeding the 20th".

There will be days when you feel down, hope seems to slowly fade, but you gotta reassure yourself that no matter how difficult it is or how difficult it gets, you are not gonna give up! 

Author Richard St. John, in his book, "The 8 Traits Successful People Have in Common", tells us about persisting through CRAP, which means:

C - Criticism

R - Rejection

A - Adversity

P - Prejudice

We need to persevere through all the obstacles, challenges, negatives, setbacks, problems, etc that stop us from achieving our goals.

Here are those famous lines from Sir Winston Churchill's speech at Harrow School on 29 October 1941, " Never give in - never, never, never, never, in nothing great or small, large or petty, never give in except to convictions of honour and good sense. Never yield to force; never yield to the apparently overwhelming might of the enemy."

Today's motivational video is Arnold Schwarzenegger's speech. His 6 rules of success are: 1.Trust yourself, 2. Break the rules, 3.Don't be afraid to fail, 4.Don't listen to the nay sayers, 5. Work your butt off, 6. Give something back to your country.

Don't skip the video, its around 5 minutes, but explains the approach of a man who successfully achieved his goals.

Good luck, have a nice evening, take care :)
