4- Success Everyone want success but just a few can reach it. It's obvious that when someone want to be successful in his life, he has to set plans, believe in himself and then do his best in order to reach his goals whatever what happens.Therefore, in my opinion, persistence is the most important characteristic that a person can have to be successful in life. Firstly, I think that persistence is indispensable to keep moving forward. When we make plans and then start following it, we often face many obstacles and constraints that we did not think about. These challenges may make us feel stuck and believe that we will not fulfill our dreams, so we drop it out unless we have a strong will. Secondly, I believe that persistence make impossible things possible. Keep trying different ways to get what we want while having bad results is not an easy task, failure is painful and make us feel desperate, but with persistence we can make success from failure; by learning from our previous experiences we can find new methods and new strategies, at least we already know what was wrong so we will not repeat the some mistakes. For example, Thomas Edison failed 1,000 times before he invented the light bulb, he didn't consider it failure but a 1,000 ways that doesn't work. Finally, from my point of view, persistence is what makes us strong and optimistic. It's the attitude of considering the bright side of everything and seeing a better future. With this we can live a happy life although all the problems we are facing and this is the true success. Thank you for you time :)
