Quote of the Day #22: Don't Fear The Strongest, Fear The One That Doesn't Quit!

in #quoteoftheday7 years ago (edited)

Domination isn’t always achieved by brute strength force, sometimes persistence is the silent victor.

So you want to be the big dog on the block? You want to flex your muscles, puff out your chest and claim ‘king of the jungle’ status in your little corner of the world? You can do so by a show of force and completely dominate whichever ‘game’ you’re playing. But that isn’t the only way to play the game.

Most of us are not the big dogs, nor do we aspire to be. Many of us simply seek to be safe and secure in our day to day activities and life.

When you jump into a new endeavor, business opp, or social media platform, the strongest, most aggressive approach is likely to fail more so than not.

You see, things don’t happen overnight, they happen gradually. The road to victory is paved with the bricks of persistence, and the drive to keep rolling, even when the wheels fall off!

Today’s quote is kind of misleading as we shouldn’t fear anything, there is nothing in this life to fear, but don’t be hesitant to be the one who never quits, you will be the ONE who always ends up in the lead! ALWAYS!

"The road to victory is paved with the bricks of persistence" - Man, I love that!

Reminds me of an awesome book I've been reading: Geoff Colvin's Talent Is Overrated. He amply demonstrates that persistence is by far THE factor when it comes to winning the day.

His book is mainly about those percieved as 'talented' (in sports, music, etc), but it applies to success however you define it. Good summary of the book here if you don't have time to read it.

Thanks a lot @septimusmaximus, I love that 'bricks of persistence' reference too. That is what propels the successful forward and ahead of the pack.
