Success comes to those who have an entire mountain of gold that they continually mine, not those who find one nugget and try to live on it for fifty years. First they ignore you, then they ridicule you, then they fight you, and then you win. Old crows are hard to catch. When something is important enough, you do it even if the odds are not in your favor. Whatever you fight, you strengthen, and what you resist, persists. Thankfully, persistence is a great substitute for talent.
