There are set-backs and failures and successes and triumphs, but it just may be that all those peaks and valleys are what make being an entrepreneur so great.
The one ingredient you’ll always need for the journey of entrepreneurship is persistence. It can take you further than any other quality alone. Here are 10 great quotes about persistence and passion to fuel your journey forward.
