Chapter 15: Success Requires a Reason to Stick to It
Life is like a marathon, and the people who can win the final victory will not be the people who do their best at the beginning, nor the people who give up halfway, but the people who can find a reason to persist in the process of the race and support themselves to run to the finish line.
If you want to get it, you have to pay a certain price. Sometimes because the price is too high, many people choose to give up halfway and seek another way out, but there will always be some people who are willing to be fools in the eyes of others and persevere to the end no matter how much it costs. And the results are often unexpected, and what seems huge at first is not worth the success in the end, and everyone will think that it is a good deal.
When we encounter difficulties and pain, we can find a thousand reasons to give up, and others will let us know in various ways that we are unlikely to succeed, but it is difficult to find a motivation to keep going. Because I couldn't see hope, I chose to give up. If you see hope before you give up, I believe many people are willing to persevere. However, hope is often hidden behind difficulties, and only those who have survived difficulties can see hope and move towards the end of success.
So, don't be intimidated by the ruggedness in front of you, don't give up too soon, hold on a little longer, and think back to what has sustained you until now. Sometimes hope is just around the corner, and if we just hold on a little longer and take a few more steps, we can see it. I believe that there is no endless way to heaven, and God will always give us some hope, but sometimes we are blinded by despair, so we will return the same way early, and we cannot see the hope that is coming.
Success requires persistence, don't give yourself a reason to give up, but find a reason to persevere, encourage yourself to continue to walk, hope is in front of you, success is not far away.
