Daily Quote: Quotes About Perseverance

March 26, 2010 by Joi 2 Comments

Book links are usually affiliate links. This means I earn a small percentage when you click through and buy the book. This costs you nothing extra - it simply allows me to keep my cats in the lifestyle they're accustomed to.

Something that helps me when 99 percent of me wants to phone it in is three simple words:  Get it Done.  It has kept me focused when my mind wants to wander away from work at hand, it has kept me doing housework when I wanted to watch I Love Lucy, and it has kept me on the treadmill for 10 minutes longer than I thought I could reach.  When you feel yourself caving in to distractions, discouragements, or any other dangerous limitations, visualize the words GET IT DONE… and then do just that.

Here are a few other favorite quotes about perseverance:

Even the woodpecker owes his success to the fact that he uses his head and keeps pecking away until he finishes the job he starts. – Coleman Cox

Keep going and the chances are that you will stumble on something, perhaps when you are least expecting it.  I never heard of anyone stumbling on something sitting down. – Charles Kettering

Character consists on what you do on the third and fourth tries. – James Michener

Most people give up just when they’re about to achieve success, they give up at the last minute of the game, one foot from a winning touchdown. – H. Ross Perot

It’s always too early to quit. – Norman Vincent Peale

When the world says, “Give up,”
Hope whispers, “Try it one more time.”
– Author Unknown

Never despair, but if you do, WORK ON IN DESPAIR.  – Edmund Burke

    I appreciate the words of encouragement you have shared here. I was particularly touched by the words of Charles Kettering, powerful and encouraging. 🙂
