How To Gain Presidential Influence

I did not say presidential favor...

In a previous post I quoted Theodore Roosevelt from his speech at the Sorbonne in Paris and now, I find myself reading (again) about persistence from this man:

This word popped into my head as I read Bob Burg's post about Standing In Our Own Way.

Persistence

"Nothing in the world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent. The slogan "Press On" has solved and always will solve the problems of the human race."

— Calvin Coolidge, 30th President of the United States

 

What more can I say with presidential influence than what this man said about persistence?

Just keep going...and "Press On".

Good wishes to you and may you always keep a coin in your pocket.
