A River Cuts Through Rock, Not Because of It’s Power, but It’s Persistence

Success is a unique personal journey, one that requires constant upkeep through consistent hard work. You need to be a river, bending, sometimes powerful and strong, sometimes just a trickle, but always moving, always going forward, with an unstoppable force.

Persistence in being the best comes about when you are able to maintain what makes you excellent.

The greatest accomplishments through the history of mankind all started with the decision to try. Great men and women knew that there was a chance they would fail on their first attempt but they did not allow this to stop them from trying. You will never be successful in anything unless you try, and don't be discouraged if it takes more than one attempt to reach a successful conclusion. Look at any failures as practice attempts, allowing you to get better until you are finally able to cross the finish line and reach your goals.

“Eighty Percent of Success is Showing Up.” 

-Woody Allen

Showing up is more than merely putting in a physical appearance. It's also intellectually showing up. Get your head in the game. Your mental presence equates to a desire to take full advantage of the opportunities put in front of you, large or small. This establishes the foundation for success.

“There is no elevator to success. You have to take the stairs.”

-Zig Ziglar

"Taking the stairs" simply means making effort, daily efforts that need to occur in order to hit the pinnacle or apex of success. To "take the elevator" means trying to bypass the hard work and consistent effort needed to make it in sales. The edifice of success has no elevators located in it.

 “You don’t have to be great to start, but you have to start to be great.”  

-Zig Ziglar

Starting is the most important part of success, even though finishing is often thought of as having arrived. It’s so easy to get caught up in wondering about how things will turn out that we lose sight of getting started. Also, if you worry about failing, or coming up against obstacles along the way, this can deter you from even starting. But all of that is imaginary thinking because you only know what will really happen when you start moving towards your goal and deal with these challenges as you come upon them.

“Hard work beats talent when talent doesn’t work hard”

-Tim Notke

This quote by Tim Notke, a high school coach, was popularized by Kevin Durant in 2007 when he was the National College Basketball Player of the Year.

"The way I see it, if you want the rainbow, you gotta put up with the rain"

-Dolly Parton

Remember, a rainbow doesn’t appear until after the rain. Into every life some rain must fall. And, while we would like to avoid the rain, it’s inevitable.

"Life starts all over again when it gets crisp in the fall"

-F. Scott Fitzgerald
