"That which we persist in doing becomes easy to do; not that the nature of the thing has changed, but our ability to do has increased." --Ralph Waldo Emerson
Emerson's quote is the key to success in any pursuit in life. As such, it is important that as we prepare ourselves for continued education at a College, University, or Trade School, or for entering the work-force, that we learn to be persistent in order to be successful. Life is not always easy, but those who keep at it, keep learning, keep applying, keep trying, become successful and feel a measure of gratitude and gratification. I see in each of you (my students) a great potential and a wonderful future if you will simply apply yourselves and reach for your dreams. Education will give you the boost that you need to reach a little higher and extend a little further. Take advantage of it. You are at a wonderful and exciting time in your lives--you have the whole world at your feet. Don't sell yourselves short; be the best that you can make for yourselves. Always keep in mind, a poor effort produces a poor mind; an average effort produces an average mind; and a superior
