Persistently, Insistently, Consistently
Persistently, Insistently, Consistently.
Our every conscious act is preceded by a thought, therefore we must learn to control our thoughts. The desire to be, or to do this or that, will avail nothing unless we have the will to persevere.
No man, no matter how limited his natural ability, should despair of doing good work, or of achieving marked success, so long as he has the fixed determination to succeed.
Those of you who are not making much of a success of your jobs can make a fresh start and say “I Can and I Will do my best to make myself an Efficient Railway Officer! I Have Made Up My Mind To Succeed.”
