“Persistence and variety. These are the two primary ways to develop great ideas or to solve important problems. Keep leaning your head against a topic for a long time. Certainly for weeks, possibly for years. And along the way, try many lines of attack. Continue to generate options, explore paths, and propose silly ideas. Copy and paste concepts from widely different disciplines and see if it gets you anywhere. All the while, continue to refine the best solution you’ve found thus far. What looks like genius may simply be the byproduct of persistence and variety.”

“Persistence can change failure into extraordinary achievement.”

“Persistence compounds. One more try, one more day, one more effort—that could be your breakthrough. When you feel like giving in - that little grit to try again despite no assured hope of a change outcome - that moment is mostly when the magic takes place.”

“Persistence is to the character of man as carbon is to steel.”
