Perseverance to me is to have the ability to be able to chase after what you want. you have to want something to be able to get it. Things won't just come to you, you have to work for it. to persevere means to go after something, something you want.
If i was offered fifty dollars right now or one hundred dollars in one year, i would take the one hundred dollars. i would take those one hundred dollars because i really want them. if i really want them im going to have to earn them by waiting a year for them.
Some long term goals in my life is to be able to travel to different places in the world. i have created some plans to achieve my goals. in order to be able to achieve my goal i have to be able to pay for the traveling. first i would have to graduate from high school, then go to at least a community college and graduate from there and find my self a job. then i must save up money to be able to pay for plane ticket, hotels, etc. there are a lot of steps to achieve my goals but i am willing to take the time and effort to do them.
