Perseverance
Definition
The spirit that does not quit before the end. Not drama. Continuation.
The lesson
Perseverance is the next honest repetition after the interesting one is over. It is showing up on the dull day and finishing the standard you set while you were proud.
It is not refusing to stop when you are injured, sloppy, or wrong. That is stubbornness. The end you are not allowed to abandon is the duty. The method can change. The desertion cannot.
Finish the session or the task you named, at the minimum honest version if the day is bad. Do not rename quitting as rest.
A new intense plan that replaces the ordinary work you have not finished.
