What defines success? Is it your grades? Is it your performance in an activity?  Or is it your willingness to PERSEVERE? Are you willing to continue your efforts to achieve something despite difficulties, failure or opposition?  The most successful people in the world identify this as a key factor for success.  They have arrived at a challenge and not only continued on but developed other creative ways of managing the challenges that arise.  Take a look at what these people say about PERSEVERANCE and SUCCESS.  What do you think?

 “The brick walls are there for a reason. The brick walls are not there to keep us out. The brick walls are there to give us a chance to show how badly we want something. Because the brick walls are there to stop the people who don’t want it badly enough. They’re there to stop the other people.”― Randy Pausch, The Last Lecture

“You may encounter many defeats, but you must not be defeated. In fact, it may be necessary to encounter the defeats, so you can know who you are, what you can rise from, how you can still come out of it.”― Maya Angelou
