Perseverance quotations will give your morale a needed boost
Got perseverance?
I hope so, because you simply can't succeed without it. No matter how smart, talented, or good-looking you are, you won't last long unless you keep on keeping on.
But here's one of life's most important truths: Perseverance can more than make up for any lacks you might have.
If you're not especially smart, talented, or good-looking (and I fall into that category, along with most other people), persistance is the great equalizer.
Check out the quotes below. There's a way through, around, over, or under your obstacles.
I am a slow walker, but I never walk backwards.
