BE PERSISTENT

I like to start with a story of a horseman and his horse, this man loved his horse that he couldn't do away with it. A day came the horse fell into a ditch, he called his neighbors to stone it to death that he don't need it any longer as a trick to get it out. They were all glad for the job. As they continue hurling stones at the horse, it keep resisting the pain and persist to overcome each throw. With time the hole was filled with stones and the horse found its way out of the dungeon and the people fled while the man was glad his horse is back.

Just like the horse everyday may not be rosy for you. Monday isn't Tuesday and Tuesday can't be Wednesday, but there's something synonymous with them all...day! If you daily encounter tough times, don't worry it can't outlast tough men like you. Even while others retire, you don't. You just keep digging it. Merriam Webster defined persistence as "continuing to do something or to try to do something even though it is difficult or other people want you to stop"

Don't stop my friend, if people are looking for a persistent figure, let them point at you. John De Lemme once said "the key of persistence will open up any door that has been closed by resistance" do you want open doors? Be persistent! The Bible says "those that call on the Lord should give him no rest..." Keep calling even when you don't feel like it, keep calling and keep doing your best and in the fullness of time you will arrive at your desired destination especially this month.

God bless your day.
