Student Success Statement


Student Success Statement
“Nothing in the world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent. The slogan ‘Press On’ has solved and always will solve the problems of the human race.”


—Calvin Coolidge, 30th President of the United States

I think that Calvin is right, there is nothing that will take the place of persistence. Persistence is one of the many things that you need to succeed and without it, there cannot be success. For example, if you want to better at something, you have to be persistent, if you aren’t, then you will not become better and achieve success. If you try any other way, then you won’t succeed. Persistence cannot be replaced.
