Most of us are often willing to throw our goals and intentions away at the first sign of opposition or difficulty, but some people remain strong, persistence in spite of everything that happens until they reach their goals.
 
 
Persistence is not only a skill, it is also an attitude to life, pursuing the goals that we have set out. That is the effort, trying non-stop, despite difficulties, we are still determined to do it to the end. The foundation of persistence is willpower. This requires us to be mindful of the impermanence of life, listening to our own emotions, and willing to learn from both successes and failures.
