Persistence is the habit of continuing to try when results do not come, and the page presents it as the key ingredient of success at work. It cites Edison's thousands of failed attempts before the electric bulb and notes that people who succeed and are passionate about their work keep going rather than getting discouraged.

History tells us that Edison went through a great many failed attempts before inventing a practical electric bulb. Among all the ingredients that we possess, persistence the key to work success. You can see persistence everywhere you look, even in the work that you do. In the workplace. We seem to forget that quality. It is easy to get discouraged when we continually try and don’t seem to get the results. Yet if you closely observe those who succeed at work and are passionate about what they do, persistence is the key.
