5.7 Perseverance
1. What does the poem mean?
2. Do you keep trying when you face difficulties in your studies or do you give up and say, "It's too hard"; or blame it on the teacher saying "She's so mean"!!!! Which activities do you give up on more easily? Which ones do you do?
3. What do you want to achieve In 1 month, 3 months, A year?
Make a short list of what you want to achieve in say 3 months and check off as you achieve it.
If short term goals are achieved, long term will automatically be achieved. For example, if you want to be organized, try to achieve some of the following short term tasks and organization will automatically be achieved. You will realize you have a lot more free time since you won't have anything pending.
1 month
1. Be organized
2. Room is clean
3. Homework is done everyday
