Student Success Statement

          Student Success Statement

"Nothing in the world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius wills 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 problem of the human race."
—Calvin Coolidge, 30^th president of the united states

Reflection:

What this statement probably means is that nothing can replace persistence and persistence & determination by themselves are both very powerful. In other words, persistence and determination are very powerful that they cannot be replaced. For example, if you were doing bad in a soccer game and is about to give up, you keep on going showing persistence and determination, you end up playing a good game.
