"Most of the important things in the world have been accomplished by people who have kept on trying when there seemed to be no help at all." - Dale Carnegie
"What we do not see, what most of us never suspect of existing, is the silent but irresistible power which comes to the rescue of those who fight on in the face of discouragement." - Napolean Hill
Perseverence is the difference between faith and lack thereof! It is the art of persistence in the face of resistance, when you believe in your vision and goal. I find this video particularly apt in illustrating the value of patience, faith and perseverence in the face of "no progress", till the time is right for things to happen:

Success
"The secret of success in life is for a man to be ready for his opportunity when it comes."
- Benjamin Disraeli
Success is achieved when opportunity meets commitment. Life is full of unexpected turns and any one of them has the potential to transform our lives if we so choose. That is why timing plays an important role in whether an opportunity results in potential realized, or merely creates another source of frustration in our lives. When we approach life with an open mind and a CAN-DO spirit, we find opportunities for growth and success at every turn. The power of positive conviction is what drives individuals to sieze the opportunity, execute with commitment, and demonstrate success.
Being present in the moment, and quickly sizing up the possibilities in a given situation, can make the difference between success and stalemate. The self confidence needed to sieze the opportunity is fed even more by the realization of the success. It inherently involves having faith, taking risk, and executing with positive conviction, in spite of the potential pitfalls and the inevitable nay-sayers. There is no sweeter reward than achieving your potential and creating a harmonious balance between personal growth and making a positive impact on the world!
