Episode #014 Perseverance
We have instant access to everything we want -- food, services, retail items, books and most of all information. This makes persevering through tough times difficult because life has become convenient. Perseverance is the ability to press on and never give-up.

Paul and Ken discuss why it is important to persevere and how Millennials can do so in our instant access society. It is about discipline and pushing through self doubt. It’s about the journey getting to your goal, not just the achievement. It is about being patient and relentlessly pursuing your dreams through failure.
