Weekly Community Check-In #139 - Perseverance

[on2onyekachi]

Hi everybody! 👏

We all at Public Lab 🎈 - learn, grow, work, brainstorm ideas, contribute together so why not share about our weekly goals and the awesome work we have done at Public Lab with each other, so we can support and collaborate with each other better. We have a Community Check-In each week, where every community member can share something about their work from the past week and about their current week's goal 🎯 . You are also welcome to share fun-fact 😄 , new ideas 💡 , your learning goals ☑️.

We believe in collaborative efforts to support our community. We are running a learning platform which helps a newcomer to become a leader of tomorrow. 💯

Perseverance

We all thrive on being successful and in doing so we often forget the difficulties lying in the path to success. We set targets and want to achieve them right away, but we are humans and may fall short of those goals.

When a child learns to stand up and tries to walk, he is found to fall down again and again. And by nature and instinct, he gets up, and again tries to step forward, although again he falls down. But ultimately, he succeeds in walking. The same thing had once happened to each one of us as a toddler.

Similarly, in spite of repeated failures, a man having perseverance does not admit his defeat and failure. He tries again and again, and finally attains success. A persevering person is one who has tremendous self-confi­dence, determination, a natural urge towards hard labor, and untiring energy to continue till the last, without grumbling or expressing dissatisfaction.

Success, despite popular belief, isn’t a one-way path or a straight line. It is a muddled road with various ups and downs, and you should navigate it with care. You might fall or get lost on your way. However, if you keep going, you will eventually reach your destination.

Thank you note to focus issues contributors

Beautifully written @on2onyekachi ♥️ This reminds me of a quote, 'things may seem colossal and we're small, yet if we persist', though I don't remember the exact words as this was from the chapters we had in school 😅
Also thank you for the mention, it's always a fun and great learning experience to work with wonderful mentors and peers 😊
