Persevere

Stick-to-it-iveness has a lot to do with getting the right answers in Math, English, history, and life.

The fisher who draws in his net too soon,
   Won't have any fish to sell;
The child who shuts up his book too soon,
   Won't learn any lesson well.

If you would have your learning stay,
   Be patient-don't learn too fast;
The man who travels a mile each day,
   May get round the world at last.
