2) the continued or prolonged existence of something
Grit: 1) courage and resolve; strength of character
2) sticking with things over a long period until you master them
Stamina: the ability to sustain prolonged physical or mental effort
What is persistence? And how
exactly does it relate to me? Basically persistence is working through
something challenging until you complete it, and it is something that you will
need to help you get through college for the years to come. I know for me, the
work that I have is not too challenging but is time consuming, but once I go
onto other years and focus more on my major the classes will get harder, and that’s
where persistence comes in. I know when in get into harder classes the work is
going to pile up and if I don’t work through it, then I will not be a successful
college student and that is something that I want to, as well as other
students, not let happen.
Other words that go along with
persistence are Grit and Stamina. Grit is very much like persistence, according
to Angela Duckworth, it is defined as sticking with something for a long time
until you master them. In order to have grit a person also needs to be
persistent. Also stamina is very important when dealing with persistence; you
can’t complete a challenge if you can’t sustain the effort needed to complete
the challenge.
