Lack of Persistence is one of the Major Causes of Failure

The next time you encounter failure, remember that every failure and adversity carries within it the seed of an equivalent benefit.  Begin to recognize that seed, and plant it through action.  You may discover that there is no such reality as failure until you accept it!

Definition of Failure:  "the act or instance of failing or proving unsuccessful; lack of success OR nonperformance of something due, required or expected OR a person or thing that proves unsuccessful".  

Explore the secret of persistence by uncovering the ten most prevalent causes of failure:

1. Lack of a definite purpose, goal or chief aim.
2. Lack of ambition to move past mediocrity.
3. A negative mental attitude.
4. Lack of self-discipline.
5. Lack of vision and imagination sufficient to recognize favorable opportunities.
6. The use of race, sex, or circumstances as a reason for inactivity.
7. Lack of belief in the existence of infinite intelligence.
8. Ill health.
9. Lack of persistence in carrying through to finish that which you start; unwillingness to go the extra mile or render a service; the habit of running away from unpleasant circumstances instead of mastering them.
10. The desire to get something for nothing.

From birth to death life poses a constant challenge to those who master  failure with persistence, and it rewards with riches the men and women who successfully meet those challenges.  If you accept defeat as an inspiration to try again with renewed confidence and determination, the attainment of your success will be only be a matter of time.  If you accept defeat as a final blow and allow it to destroy your confidence, you might as well abandon any hope of success.
