Persistence- the
quality that allows someone to continue doing something or trying to do
something even though it is difficult or opposed by other people.
Persistence is the ability to continue trying
even thought something is hard. This relates to our discussion on Angela
Ducksworth about grit. Grit is the ability to keep trying until you reach that
goal. This word reminds me of college and how you have to be persistent in
order to succeed.
Two new words that I learned this week were
decimate, which means to destroy a larger number of people, and ego depletion,
which means exhausting your mental energy.
