how to do one minute speeches on the topics faith,determination,endurance,perseverance and courage each?
Perseverance means to continue steadfastly, especially in something that is difficult or tedious. It requires regular practice to develop the quality of perseverance. Only a patient person with strong determination can achieve his goal by perseverance.

When a child learns to stand up and tries to walk, he is found to fall down again and again. And by nature and instinct, he gets up, and again tries to step forward, although again he falls down. But ultimately, he succeeds in walking. The same thing had once happened with each one of us, when we were children.
Perseverance is the secret of success. Without it, no great achievement is possible. Even if a person is not very talented, nor highly knowledgeable, but of an average merit, still he can succeed in life simply by his perseverance. Every action has its reaction. So hard labour has no alternative. It must yield results.

Faith is the very sum and substance of life. Without faith, human beings cannot achieve anything. If we observe all the greatest Endeavour’s carried out in this world, we find that behind them faith was the sole-driving force, without which everything is impossible.

A person can set a goal for himself, only if he has faith that ultimately he will achieve the goal. Thus, faith forms the foundation of every new achievement, every new invention and every new discovery and every new victory. There is a co-relation between faith and achievement.

Faith cannot be imposed upon anyone. It comes from deep inside one’s heart. It cannot be measured. The quantity of faith possessed by you depends upon how positive your approach towards life is.
― Thomas A. Edison
Determination is the act of coming to a decision or of fixing or settling a purpose. In reference as being identified as a learning skill, accordingly it may enhance ones studies if they were to have a better understanding and knowledge of this skill. Unfortunately, due to the lack of determination by students, research suggests that many students are having difficulty staying in and completing post-secondary education. Everyone is driven by his or her own determination to succeed, therefore making it an essential learning skill to improve and gain a better understanding and knowledge.
Endurance is the ability to sustain over time, to call from ourselves renewed commitment and effort when we are confronted with challenges or hardship. Endurance often requires tolerating discomfort, and may call on us to reach for resources and stamina we are not certain we possess. Endurance means that we remain steadfast even through criticism, monotony, and discouraging odds.

Endurance requires planfulness and balance, not just strength of will. Health and pacing often determine our ability to sustain. This means that we need to take care of ourselves if we care about the long term.


A person who is highly intelligent, and a scholarly genius, but is lethargic by nature, and reluctant to diligence, can hardly prosper in life, because he does not know how to use his brain and labour in the right direction. In this world, all the great things have been made or constructed only by perseverance.

“The man who moves a mountain begins by carrying away small stones.”
― Confucius, Confucius: The Analects
“Many of life's failures are people who did not realize how close they were to success when they gave up.”
― Thomas A. Edison
