The only way you fail is if you quit or run out of resources.

Persistence is a trait one needs to develop for success. It may take multiple times to get what you want. The only thing that can stop you from putting an effort is you. Of course, there is the other thing that happens, and that is you run out of resources. If you run out of time, money, strength, and so on, you will fail. On that note, it is important to try to pick things you have enough resources to succeed with. And, on this note, I will mention my Success Principles eBook again. Description of persistence is in there, along with needing sufficient resources. You can get ahold of the eBook, by signing up for it here: http://RevTEAPage.BLTeks.com.
