"On occasion we need to make a second effort - and a third effort, and a fourth effort, and as many degrees of effort as may be required to accomplish what we strive to achieve"

This quote by Thomas S. Monson is a pointer that success does not come quickly and that we should want to put in the effort to achieve our goals. It is encouraging us to not quit after the first attempt, however to keep trying and to not be dissuaded by failure. It is informing us that we should be consistent which we must want to make multiple attempts in order to reach our wanted result. This quote is a reminder that success is not ensured and that we should be willing to put in the hard work and commitment to make our dreams a truth. It is a pointer that we need to be resilient and that we need to never ever quit, no matter the number of times we stop working.
