John C. Maxwell Quotes

Persistence is self-discipline in action.

I believe persistence is a major key to success in any great endeavor. I want to remind folks to PERSIST in whatever they are tackling at the moment!

It's been said that commitment is another name for success.

Achievement requires more than a vision - it takes courage, resolve and tenacity. All you have got to do is plant that seed in your mind, care for it, work steadily toward your goal, and it will become a reality

To tend, unfailingly, unflinchingly, towards a goal, is the secret of success.

Persevere and get it done.

I think one of the most important attributes is perseverance.

By prevailing over all obstacles and distractions, one may unfailingly arrive at his chosen goal or destination.

The key to all things is determination.

You've just got to keep playing and keep working hard to get where you're supposed to be.

You don't achieve success by "taking it easy" or "working on it later." You achieve it thru persistence and hard work.

What I did have, which others perhaps didn't, was a capacity for sticking at it, which really is the point, not the talent at all. You have to stick at it.

Nothing in this world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not: nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent.

Sticking to it is the genius.

It is a lack of commitment, not a lack of talent, that damns you to mediocrity.

If you are hardworking and determined, you will make it and that's the bottom line. I don't believe in an easy way through.

Never give up on something that you can't go a day without thinking about.

Actually, ambition won't get you that far. You'll shift gears. You'll see something that's shinier. But if you believe... then you're the long-distance runner.

If I’m committed, there is always a way.

If what you are doing is worth doing, hang in there until it is done.

There's always a way through things if you work hard enough and look close. It all depends on your level of determination.

Work hard at everything you do. Never give up. Never quit. Many people have talents but without the hard work you won't get anywhere.

To see one's goal and to drive toward it, steeling one's heart, is most uplifting.
