Perseverance is sustained effort toward a goal despite difficulty, slow progress, fear, doubt, or discouragement. It keeps learning and career plans moving when obstacles appear. section 2.4.1 section 4.0
Practice perseverance by:
- Treating obstacles as opportunities to learn, improve, and advance. section 2.4.1
- Combining visualization and planning with consistent, active effort. section 2.4.1
- Setting attainable goals and continuing when progress is slow or priorities shift. section 4.0
Climbing the wall
A developer encounters a career obstacle and can remain at its base or put in the effort to climb it. Reaching ambitious goals requires repeated practice and hard work, not visualization alone. section 2.4.1
