Nothing in the world can take the place of persistence.
Talent will not; nothign os more common than unsuccessful men with talent.
Genius will not; unrewarded genuis is almost a proverb.
Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts.
Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent. The slogan ‘Press on!’ has solved and always will solve the problems of the human race.
Calvin Coolidge

Talent is never enough. With a few exceptions, the best players are the hardest workers.
Earvin ‘Magic’ Johnson
There may be a lot of people who train a lot but never really make it.
But there are definitely extremely few who make it without working hard.
Success, either in sports or in business or in personal stuff, is almost always the effect of hard work and determination
Set yourself some goals and work your ass of. This is the safest road to success. You want to be always open-minded for opportunities, always friendly and always diligent!
