What is to Gain from being Persistent?

I found The following poem from www.coachingtoolbox.com

“I will persist 'til I succeed" by Og Mandino


I will not allow yesterday’s success to lull me into today’s complacency,
for this is the great foundation of failure.

I will forget the happenings of the day that is gone, Whether they were good or bad,
And greet the new sun with confidence that this will be the best day of my life.

So long as there is breath in me, that long will I persist.
For now I know one of the greatest principles of success;
If I persist long enough I will win.

I will persist.
I will win.”


It's a new day, a new week, whatever you face keep plugging away.
