Because I believe, I see, because I see, I insist.

Success belongs to those who persevere to the end

The disciple asked the Buddha: I can't see what you say about the world of bliss. How can I believe it?

Took the Buddha's disciple to a dark room and told him there was a hammer in the corner. The disciple opened his eyes wide, but still could not see the finger, so he had to say: "I can't see it". The Buddha lit a candle. Sure enough, there was a hammer in the corner.

If you don't see it, it doesn't exist.

Some people believe that seeing is believing because they see it, so they believe in it. But there are a lot of things in this world that can't be seen, and there are a lot of ideas that people in this world haven't proven. So they will miss the opportunity to do nothing because they have to see and believe.

Some people dare to think and do, just like 30 years ago, no one could believe in relying on the Internet to make food within reach, but Jack Ma believed then, and he saw the future trend. His belief proved to be correct.

In Jinggang Mountain, Comrade Mao Zedong wrote down "The fire of a star can start a prairie" in front of a group of several hundred people. Who could have seen the momentum of the prairie? Who could believe that the Chinese Communist Party could seize national power twenty years later? It was not because others lacked the vision to see the future, but because they did not believe in the future. I did not believe in the path I was following, and I did not believe that "a dozen men with seven or eight guns" could win the National Revolution, but Chairman Mao believed in his judgment, so he saw the tide of history.

If you want to see your goals achieved, you must first believe in yourself and your judgment! Because I believe, I see, I believe in my strength, I believe in my own choices, I believe that my future goals will be achieved, so I will persevere, no excuses!

In life, many of us are either influenced by the words and actions of others or limited by our self-perceptions, so we tend to set limits on ourselves. As Jay Rifenbury says: "How you feel about yourself will help you decide the way forward; what you have to say about yourself largely determines the kind of person you will become."

It's like the little elephant tied to a big tree with a rope, trying to break free as a child, and failing over and over again, thinking it would never be possible to break free of that rope. When he grew up, he was fully capable of breaking free but lost the courage to try.

When you choose to believe in yourself, you will have a stronger heart to face fear and failure and be willing to take greater risks to act and try. You won't care what others think or say about you, and you won't waver in your thoughts and judgments.

Franklin D. Roosevelt suffered from polio and could not walk, but he never used his physical disability as an excuse. He always believed in himself and eventually proved to people all over the world that he could be the president who led America and was respected by the world.

When you know your true self, respect yourself, and believe in yourself, you will learn to control yourself and guide yourself. In the presence of a strong will, even the greatest risks, even sacrifices, will become constraints. This will enable you to achieve what you want.

See because you believe, and persevere because you see.

Adam Clarke spent 40 years exegeting the Bible.

Noah Webster spent 36 years compiling the Wechsler Dictionary dictionary.

The Wright brothers spent four years overcoming great odds, even risking their lives to invent the airplane.

Some people choose to give up five minutes before a miracle and may regret it for the rest of their lives. Some people keep going until they win the final victory. Always remember what you want to achieve, stay determined, and don't let any excuses stop you from moving forward. You'll have no regrets in this life!

Like most people, Winston Churchill suffered many setbacks. During his nine-year career at boarding school, he did poorly in his studies, but he always maintained a strong determination. To get into the Royal Army Military College, he submitted three applications before being accepted.

Years later, he returned to his high school alma mater and gave the shortest graduation speech in Harrow Public School history: "Never give up! Never give up! Never, never, never give up! --small or big, important or unimportant--never give up, unless your goal is against honor and goodwill!" Just like Churchill's persistence and hard work made him a different kind of leader.

Success belongs to those who persevere to the end. Nothing in this world can replace persistence. Talent cannot replace persistence because people who have talent but do not succeed abound; talent cannot replace persistence because there are as many people with talent who are not rewarded. With determination and persistence, there is supreme power.

The past cannot be changed, and the future cannot be guaranteed, but the present is the most real. Let's practice the principle of "no excuses" together, live in the present, and achieve something together! Our achievements may not change the course of human history, but what we try will eventually create personal history!
