Student Success Statement
“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; 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
Reflection: This statement
means persistence is the most important thing you should have. Having talent or
being really smart will not overcome being persistent. As long as you try your
best at everything you want to achieve you can accomplish it just as easily.
