Practice Persistence

With persistence and time what was unknown and difficult becomes familiar and clear.

1. What is new is unknown. Your first attempts will not go well. Try again and never give up.
   It is normal to be discouraged. It’s not okay to quit.

2. Remember and remind yourself of the phrase from Epictetus: “persist and resist.”
   You should always persist in your efforts and resist distractions, discouragements or disorder.

3. When looking for the solution you should NEVER be:

   • in a hurry
   • worried
   • desperate
   • stop short
