Student Success
Statement
“Nothing in the world
can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than
unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; the world is full of educated
derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent. The slogan ‘Press
On’ has solved and always will solve the problems off the human race.”
-Calvin Coolidge, 30th
president of the United States
Persistence is a very
important factor in success, even more so than natural talent. It is also
available to everyone, everyone can harness its power and do great things.
