Daniel H. Pink Quotes
Persistence Trumps Talent.
What's The Most Powerful Force In The Universe? Compound Interest. It Builds On Itself. Over Time, A Small Amount Of Money Becomes A Large Amount Of Money. Persistence Is Similar. A Little Bit Improves Performance, Which Encourages Greater Persistence Which Improves Persistence Even More. And On And On It Goes.
Lack Of Persistence Works The Same Way
Only In The Opposite Direction.
Of Course Talent Is Important, But The World Is Lit Erred With Talented People Who Didn't Persist, Who Didn't Put In The Hours, Who Gave Up Too Early, Who Thought They Could Ride On Talent Alone. Meanwhile, People Who Might Have Less Talent Pass Them By.
That's Why Intrinsic Motivation Is So Important. Doing Things Not The Get An External Reward Like Money Or A Promotion, But Because You Simple Like Doing It. The More Intrinsic Motivation You Have , The More Likely You Are To Persist. The More You Persist, The More Likely You Are To Succeed.
