** One Secret of Great Achievers ** Most of the time, stubbornness is a very unattractive quality. Nobody likes an obstinate old man who refuses to accept the inevitable or to change with the times. But there’s a big difference between stubbornness and resolve, between pigheadedness and principle. There’s also a big difference between insanity and persistence. It’s one thing to deny the obvious, and you will do so to your own peril. But it’s another thing altogether to refuse to quit in the pursuit of something noble. Such a quality brings the eventual admiration and respect of all who behold it. Great achievers often achieve great things simply because they refuse to give up. When all other things are equal, persistence will usually cause one person to rise above the rest. As the others give up and quit the race, one by one, the guy who simply refuses to go away will eventually prevail. He will inevitably be the one who breaks the ribbon and takes homes the first-place trophy.
