6. Poor Self-Esteem

People with low self-confidence are constantly trying to find themselves rather than creating the person they want to be.

People who lack conviction take the middle of the road. They conform in order to get accepted, even when they know that what they are doing is wrong.

Decide what is important to you. If something is worth doing, it’s worth doing right and doing well. Let your passion show even in mundane ta...

1. Lack of Persistence

More people fail not because they lack knowledge or talent but because they just quit.

It’s important to remember two words: persistence and resistance. Persist in what must be done and resist what ought not to be done.

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!
