Sheer determination, I guess.

Or - just drop it and do it. The problem with so many is that they're all talk about what they want to achieve, but nothing ever gets done without that first step.

(I'm guilty too. I just happen to read a lot of motivational quotes, which is why I know this.)

Yep. Great minds and all that.

Too many of us give up after failure. Those that make it don't have better luck, they just don't give up.
