A “no” is just a temporary obstacle on the road to success.

Accepting a “no” is acceptance of temporary failure.

Never accept temporary failure as permanent failure.

A "No" has a meaning (for most people).

But if you take the meaning OFF of the “No”, you’ll eventually get the “yes”.

It can take weeks or years… but it WILL happen.

It’s about persistence. Don’t be too forceful – just BE persistent.

Be patient. Patience is a form of endurance.

Endurance is the foundation of persistence.

It’s not about going fast – it’s about going slow without stopping.

If you go slow – the “no” will melt away like a rock in a stream of water.

Y: “Alright, but I’d like you to keep thinking about it anyway - Ok?”

X: “OK - but my decision is probably not going to change."
