Resilience is the capacity to recover quickly from difficulties; toughness. And persistence is the fact of continuing in an opinion or course of action in spite of difficulty or opposition.
I watched a show via youtube and in that show, the current US President Barack Obama said something like him being a big believer in persistence and that the kid who survives is the resilient one. You have to watch the show (at about 29:30) to know what he is talking about but that struck me there and then. And I have decided to make these words my mottos for the coming new calendar year.
Indeed, people can get discouraged from failures and easily quit. But the winners are those who stuck in there and see it through.
