Hi Brian and all
Thanks for sharing, as my English vocabulary is rather limited,
I did a little research on dictionary.com about the word
"persiverence", no hit. Tried "perseverance" , got a hit but
not so good explanation. I tried on google with "perseverance"
as a keyword and got many hits. I think the following one is good,
so let me post the URL.
http://www.ksu.edu/wwparent/comments/12perseverance.htm
Let me quote the first paragraph :
"The word persevere is taken from the Latin per which means
"very" and severus which means being "strict or earnest" in the
pursuit of a goal. So to persevere means to continue steadfastly,
to persist and endure despite adversity. Three elements are
necessary for perseverance to occur. First, we have to feel
passionately about a goal. The motivation for reaching the goal
has to come from deep within our bones. "
Enjoy....
