Story:
Fritz Kreisler, the great violinist, was once asked, "How do you play so well? Are you lucky?"
He replied, "It is practice.
If I don't practice for a month, the audience can tell the difference.
If I don't practice for a week, my wife can tell the difference.
If I don't practice for a day, I can tell the difference.
Power of Persistence:
Persistence results from commitment and leads to determination.

Power of Persistence:
"Nothing will take the place of persistence. Talent will not: Nothing is more common than unsuccessful people with talent. Genius will not: Unrewarded genius is a proverb. Education will not: The world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent."
-Calvin Coolidge
