Persevering through the storm

Persevering means continuing of a course of action despite the failures, hardships and obstacles faced during achieving success. In general perseverance can be called the ability of oneself to thrive to reach their goal.


Goals are definitely something each one of us works towards be it as small as to how much syllabus you will cover in a day or to get into your dream university. But no matter what it is , we often come across challenges in the way. Then it is on us how we tackle them: whether we get through them or simply give up, whether we have the will to do what it takes to reach our potential or lose hope without giving it a shot.


Perseverance is not a natural attribute of an individual but an attitude developed over time , with the positive influence of elimination of negative thoughts, determination, will power and not fearing to be out of one's comfort zone.

Don't be discouraged. It is often the last key in the bunch that opens the lock.

It is essential to be persevering towards when faced with tough situations. It is the key element which distinguishes the ambitious people from achievers. It is greatly important to dream for something but on top of it , we have to actually put in effort and relentlessly work towards it. Some ways which helps us to be persevering in nature are -:

  1. Decisive of your main objective

Unless and until we are not determined of our goal no matter how hard we try we are not able to give in our full potential. It is crucial to set a target goal to be able to have the desire to want it which enables us to do what is in our ability.


2. Determination and elimination of false thoughts

We all feel down when we fail, get fed up of trying and trying, think about giving up, however the best way out is muting all the negativity. Learn and rise up- we should follow this mantra if we wish to do something. Obstacles are just a test for us to prove if we really want to reach our goal or whether it's just something which everyone wants?


3. Stop finding shortcuts

Life doesn't has shortcuts and those who tried to follow one , ended up way behind others on track. They may seem attractive for a short while giving promising results, but in the long run the cause more harm than giving the same issue a while or more extra.


4. Generating interest

If we are not interested in something no matter how benefitting it is , we cannot do it with our whole heart. Thus it is remarkably important to follow your interest to maintain the passion throughout the course or else it becomes a burden and instead of helping results in demotivation.


To conclude with a famous saying of Martin Luther King Jr.


"If you can't fly , the run,

if you can't run , then walk,

if you can't walk , then crawl

but whatever you do ,

you have to keep moving forward."


It is fair to say it finally depends on us what we achieve in life , no one is born with success but it is reflects the efforts put in by them using the same time most of us spend lazing around. They aren't aliens nor do they live a gifted life, they just make use of the same time we have into something productive which will help them in future. It is necessary for us to not give up but fight through to be able to create a niche for ourselves.
