One of the most important qualities in order to be successful is doggedness. This is a very thin line between any success or failure. Many great men from the past like Edison would not have been what they were if they had not persevered and persisted to work towards their life purpose and goals not afraid of any obstacles that might be approaching their way.
That's is to say if you manage to persevere and overcome the odds, in some way you will be richly rewarded later in your life. However, no one can tell you when this rich reward will come by . There is a lot of permutations and factors and perseverance is one of them. So do have good trust in yourself and ability, and don't flash giving up in your mind when you are stuck at the first hurdle or when things are not going smoothly.
As you encounter setbacks in life, do share these unfortunate moments with more learned souls who have come and gone through these life lessons as well. They will be able to guide you and give you valuable advices. Self improvement guru Maria Duval says this is the fastest way to learn any life lesson. Through this kind of mentoring, self doubts won't come in and take over you that comfortably. This will inject into you an even stronger dosage of self belief.
Many battles have been triumphant at the death, even though the opening duels finished in demoralising defeats . So if you do not succeed the first time, try and try again! Pin it to yourself as a impermanent setback, a chapter that points to you the right way to do it and learn from it.
Firmly entrenched in your memory that many great sportsmen, scientists, and experts in their own professions all met defeats in earlier stages of their path to successes. They built from here and went on to fulfil an illustrious life!
Be prompted that persevering does not mean wearing yourself out frantically and directionlessly . Neither does it mean adhering to your goals at all expenses to the anguish of your wellness or loved ones , and to the point where you altogether neglect your social life.
Cocentrating on your life purpose also means being both strong in your decisions and focused on your aim, but nevertheless capable of adapting and reconsidering if the changing goal post size and magnitude of obstacles of life make this necessary.
In this aspect, I surmise you will be able to know that whatsoever outcomes that happen, it will be useful to you in some way. Everything has a grounds and meaning for you to find out as you track the path of life. You will then recognise how the world could be your buddy. Ultimately, it is the the Universe that provides for your needs and takes care of everyone.
