👉Do you ever notice that the flies that sticks to an exposed spoilt Mango never leaves no matter how many attempts you have made to drive them away they stick to the body of this spoilt mango even if there is nothing sweet about it but in as much it is still serving them as their source of food. You want to get rid of this flies you will have to discard the spoilt mango in a hidden place and now, the flies can zoom off.

There are lots of lessons to learn from this little illustration. My dear, it's only the persistent ones that ends up getting the very best for themselves. You can lose your patience anytime but you can't lose persistence without you personally making a decision to give up.
The Bible verse "Weeping may endure for a night but joy comes in the morning is for the patient ones but the part where Job said "Though he slay (kill) me, I will hope in him, Nevertheless I will argue my ways before Him (Job13:15) is the case of a persistent person.

Persistence is the senior brother of patience.

Persistent in the English dictionary simply means Obstinately refusing to give up or let go/insistently repetitive/lasting past maturity without falling off.
These definitions are enough to tell you that you can't become the very best of your kind if you don't add persistence to your life.

Great men and women in life has been a product of persistence, they never gave up on success, failure was their stepping stone day by day, and they last past maturity without falling off.

Sweetheart, are you a student and you are tired of reading, because you don't get good grades, or your 18year old self is the breadwinner who puts food on the table of five in the family, or you have tried the clean legal means to make money but it's as if money doesn't want to be friends with you.
Please, I beg you👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻with everything I am made of not to give up. The space between that moment you are giving up and your success is always a thin line.

Persistence is the key to every great life, even your getting to heaven requires persistence. Be persistent on that dreams and life goals of yours today and when you look back in the future at the days you were persistent you will acknowledge that it was worth it.
Finally, I leave you on this note in the image below...
