The Power of Perseverance

Good morning,

Walter Elliot once said, “Perseverance is not a long race; it is many short races one after the other.”This perspective on perseverance is a reminder that success is not achieved in one grand effort, but through a series of small, consistent steps.

Perseverance Is Built Over Time

We often think of perseverance as an enduring, never-ending challenge, but the reality is that it’s made up of many moments, many decisions, and many actions—each one bringing us closer to our goals. Each small effort is just one “race” in the larger journey.

Take It One Step at a Time

The key to perseverance is breaking down your bigger goals into smaller, more manageable tasks. You don’t have to focus on the entire journey ahead—just the next step. By doing this, the road to success becomes less overwhelming and more achievable.

Small Wins Matter

Every small victory counts. Whether it’s making progress on a project, overcoming a personal challenge, or simply staying committed, these little wins add up. They build momentum and confidence, fueling your perseverance to keep going.

Keep Pushing Forward

When things feel tough, remember that perseverance is about showing up again and again, not just once. Even if the progress feels slow, as long as you’re taking those small steps forward, you’re moving toward your goal.

The Journey Is Your Strength

What makes perseverance powerful is the resilience it builds over time. Each small step you take, each little race you run, strengthens your ability to keep going. Stay consistent, stay focused, and trust that the journey will get you to where you want to be.

Success isn’t about running one long race—it’s about completing many short races, one after another. Keep moving forward, and remember that every step is progress.
