"I will persist until I succeed"

Og Mandino

I think what Og Mandino is trying to say is that if you always persist you will always succeed. Like for example if you are in a soccer team and you give up  just like that you won't succeed. Or like in school if your writing an essay and you give up you won't succeed in your essay and in getting a good grade in it.
