Focus on your goal
The definition of perseverance includes the word persistence. Therefore, one way to persevere is to persistently focus on your goal. Tiger Woods became one of the greatest golfers of all time, by focusing on his goal since youth. Even as a professional, he showed tremendous ability to focus. In this year’s U.S. Open, Tiger Woods never gave up on winning another major tournament despite his knee injury. The strength and resilience displayed by this professional golfer captivated golf fans all over the world. Not only does this idea exist with athletes, but also in academics. Sir Isaac Newton was asked how he discovered the law of gravity and he replied “By thinking about it all the time.”
