Keep planting until you have things to harvest.
Or
"Which would you rather have: a bouquet of flowers or a packet of seeds?"
I'm sure if the question above is thrown to many of us, a lot might go for a bouquet of flowers, but chosen a packet of seeds is much more logical because it gives you the opportunity to grow your flowers. In fact, more flowers than your were offered.
An overnight success? Get rich quick? Instant gratification? We live in an instant era; we want it now. We don't really want to take the seeds, we want the flowers. The truth is, the path of persistence pays.
Never give up on what you really know you should do. Failure is waiting on the path of least persistence. The man of the hour spent many days and nights getting there.
Consider the man who said, "My overnight success was the longest night of my life.".... Anonymous
Most people don't realize how close they are to success when they quit. Remember, stopping at third base adds no more score than stricking out.
.when you are persistent, it's proof you have not been defeated. Mike Murdock says, "You have no right to anything you have not pursued. For the price of desire is in the pursuit." Life holds no greater wealth than that of steadfast commitment. It cannot be robbed from you. Only you can lose it by your will.
The secret of success is to start from scratch and keep on scratching. We evaluate people by what they finish, not by what they start.
People do not fail, they just quit too soon
Are you deliberately planning on being less than you are capable of being?
Elizabeth Whitney was laughed at when he showed his cotton gin, Edison had to install electric light free of charge in an office building before anyone would even look at it. The first sewing machine was smashed to pieces by a Boston mob. People scoffed at the idea of railroads. People thought that traveling thirty mikes an hour would stop the circulation of the blood. Morse had to plead before ten congress before they would even look at his telegraph... Anonymous
Yet for all these men, the sky was not the limit. We still celebrate them for the value they all had to humanity, if they quit so soon, do think we will still be remembering them like this?
Our world have no regard for failure, we only gather to celebrate success
"Beware of those who stand aloof and greet each venture with reproof; the word would stop if things were run by men who say it can't be done"... Samuel Glover
We achieve in proportion to what we attempt. More people are persuaded into believing in nothing than into believing too much. "Where there is no vision, the people perish," says the book of proverbs. You can start today and God's help begin to move towards. Here is the goodness, God isn't finished with you yet.
