"Persistence is to the character of man as carbon is to steel." Napoleon Hill

Preface.

Well, you may not feel comfortable about the source where this story is taken; trust me - it's the best and hits the nail on the head.

In the Bible, there was a story about a woman pleading with a corrupt and evil judge (Luke 18:1-8). Though he is corrupt, and likely judges, fairly only in case of a lucrative bribe. But, as we read, he says he doesn't; he does not fear, neither god nor human.

I remember a story about ancient Hun warrior and military leader Atila. 

He was once asked by their military ally - the commander of the Roman army to lie down in an ambush and wait for a signal to attack.

An ordinary general would have waited for an envoy to deliver concise orders or an obvious sign.
