7. Persistence is Required. (Never, Ever, Ever Give Up)
A story about persistence, discouragement and Success.
A story was told by napoleon hill in his book out-witting the devil. In the story he said one day, the devil displayed all his work implements, instruments and equipments. A passerby saw those items and decided to ask what the devil was using all those things for; the devil replied that these are his work tools for wreaking havoc on the lives and destinies of people. But while asking this question, he observed that one of the tools on display was isolated and kept specially on very expensive packaging material appearing to be much more valuable than the others but left open as though for sale. When the passerby went further to ask why this particular equipment was kept separately in such a dignified manner and what it was used for? The devil replied that this instrument is called 'discouragement' and that it was his number one (sure bet) weapon for destroying people’s lives, dreams, purpose, mission, visions, assignment, destinies etc. ‘It’s what gives him competitive edge in his business of destruction of lives and destinies’. That it’s possible for him to sell all the other work tools but not the tool of discouragement, NEVER! To do that was to put himself out of business permanently.
The devil said he has known from his experience of destroying and stopping the destinies and vision of billions of lives that everyone can be courageous and serious about their purpose, dreams, assignments etc. in normal times when everything were in shape but during hard times, pressures and discouragement; the majority of people would fall and quit and throw away their dreams and visions from their center of focus and return to normal purposeless-survivalist existence!
Keep going, encourage yourself, and don’t ever be discouraged. By all means determine never to give up on yourself, your purpose, dream and vision. Remain consistent and persistent, over time People will come to know you for what you do and represent. So be determined and persistent in doing or carrying out your life’s work and after that, wait patiently as time does her work in bringing your dream to reality and in bringing you to limelight.
Bear in mind that every great product or company you see today was not in existence before and nobody knew them then but because of consistency, persistence and time we now. So keep this secret in mind.
