Success is always described by the old as something relevant to patience.
In the picture, a man sits with a dozen of clocks around him. Beside him
is the subtitle saying that "success means persisting five minutes
more than others". We can infer from it that the man sets these
many clocks just to remind himself that he should never give up.
It is very true that success derives from persistence, for which there are
several reasons. Firstly, no accomplishment can be achieved in a short
time, and success asks for continuous industrious work and efforts.
Secondly, when one is able to insist in stepping towards achievement, he
must believe what he dedicates to. This belief is the source of persistence
that paves the way to success. Thirdly, just as the saying
goes,"Rome was not built in one day".
