Senators show perseverance by setting goals for themselves and working hard to achieve them even when things get tough. Set a goal for something you want to accomplish and then break it down into several short-term goals. By breaking a large goal down into small steps, you will be more likely to persevere to achieve your goals. The best day to start is today!
