Smarts, Charm, and Talent, are some of the most valuable attributes to posses, but without Persistence they are Worthless.  Right?  Lets take a look.

Smarts

With smarts you can unlock many doors.  A smart person can navigate many obstacles and scale many walls.  With smarts you can write your own chapters in your book of life. You’re capable of solving the many problems that life presence and are capable of creating opportunities that many may never get.  A smart person can gain the respect of others and build on those relationships.

Charm

With charm you can cast a spell so powerful it will have others singing your praises and cheering your cause.  Charm can tame the most stubborn and soften the hardest.  With charm the power of persuasion is at your will.

Talent

With talent you can impress the most doubtful.  You can kick down doors and change the minds of many.  Talent will take you places you never dreamed you could go and to heights you never thought you’d reach.  Talent will captivate others and hold their attention.

Smarts, Charm, and Talent, are priceless, but they’re Worthless without Persistence.

Persistence

We all know people who are unusually smart,  charming, and talented, but they are not successful.  The one thing they lack is persistence!

Persistence is the most powerful of all attributes because without it smarts, charm and talent are worthless.  Not everyone will be impressed with your smarts, captivated by your charm , or overwhelmed by your talent.  There will always be those who don’t see your vision, or share your passion.  You will hear the word No and you may hear it often.  But,  you must stay diligent in all you do.  You must continue to try until you get it right .  Don’t stop, don’t give in, and most importantly do not give up.  You must be persistent.

You don’t have to be the smartest, you just need to be persistent in learning.  You don’t have to be the most charming, you just need to be persistent in engaging those you are trying to charm.  You don’t have to be the most talented, you just need to be persistent in working that talent.

Nothing happens overnight, there are no free rides.  Everyone has had doors closed in there faces and falls on bumps in the road, but they had the ability to get up, never give up, and fight until they got it right.

It’s called Persistence and it will eventually win the race every time.
