Persistence

Prior to becoming the 16th US President, the persistent Abraham Lincoln ran for public office, tried to set up his own business, and even ran for Vice President-and lost every time.

Some people would call him a loser. He ran for state office- was beaten. He started a business-it failed. He ran for congress and lost. He was nominated for vice-president, he lost again. Fortunately, Abraham Lincoln knew what it took to be a winner. Persistence… Pass It On. This message is a courtesy of The Foundation for a Better Life at Pass It On.com.
