Enthusiasm


"I will keep pegging away."
Abraham Lincoln




Larry Bird worked so hard. He persisted day-after-day and kept pegging away. For every shot he scored in a game, 1 million practice shots preceded it.

  1. I think this means to not give up and to keep persisting. When you persist you show sign of aptitude and a good attitude, and thats always a good quality. For example, if you want to keep straight A's you have to persist and work very hard so you can maintain those A's. but if you give up you'll get an F. When you persist you choose the right.

  2. Keep pegging away, never give up. always try your best and stay put to what comes. try, try your very best! if you keep pegging you'll see more ahead, you'll be a champion, a winner! never give up because the more you try (peg) the more you'll see; you'll simply get more.
    choose the right, when pegging all the time!

  3. I don't really understand what this quote is saying. I think it is saying that you should not give up on what you want and keep trying hard. If you have a dream, you shouldn't give up, keep pegging away. For example, MLK Jr. had a dream. He kept pegging away. he never gave up. He expressed himself.

  4. Pegging away in your academic life you will be successful. If you keep pegging in the class rooms you be getting "A" and if you do it as will as the sports you will be an champion. But if you don't start pegging the way you are, you will not succeed in life. So always do as your told and always start pegging in you academic life or even in your athletic life and you shell be successful. So always be pegging and you shell succeed.

    When you keep pegging is when you keep trying to succeed at what your doing till you are satistfied by how well you done.Dont quit after 1 hour of trying and didnt get right away.Many talented people like Magician Criss Angel spent their childhood perfecting his tricks which led him to know be considered the greatest Magician of the 20th century.So just keep on pegging away it pays off and is worth the effort.

  8. I agree with all these quotes. Always practice to become better at doing what you want to do. For example Larry Bird practiced every day so he could be able to score a lot of points on his next game. If you think your already good, keep practicing don't stop so you can be the best a champion.

  9. According to this statement what is trying to say is that no matter what happens he will keep working hard. For example, if we don't understand a homework assignment we will work on it until we get it we will work hard. And also we would do it with energy and make it fun. By him saying pegging away is to say work persistently or energetically.

  10. well this video is a big motivation for someone that plays basketball, it makes you want to go out there and push it every day harder and harder to try to be better every day. this also mean that you could also go out there and push it everyday in your classes and pass them by not being lazy and putting effort in all assignments. classwork to me is like a play for basketball everyday and when i play i give it all i got in every play and i see it the same way in my class.

  14. Persisting and working hard is very important. The way to become good at something is to practice practice practice and never give up when you don't do it right. At first it can be hard to reach your goal but when you keep pegging away and not giving up, then you can be great. When you don't succeed the first time, just keep trying and trying to be successful. Everyone starts somewhere and they get to the level they are in because they never gave up and kept trying their best. Never give up and just keep pegging away to your success. =)

  16. If we keep pegging away at anything we want then eventually we can become really good at it and because of C.T.R. you will always keep pegging away at the right things instead of the bad and wrong. This quote has inspired me to keep pegging away at my studies and grades and C.T.R will help me get to my goals that i have set for myself because of this posting. Thank you

  17. This Quote Is All About Trying. Many people see something hard and just say to themselves "No it's too hard," without even trying. Many things seem hard but sometimes its actually easy.

  18. When you keep pegging away, it means that you will keep working hard. For instance, if you are already making a good progress in something, then you should still work continuously to keep achieving in life. When you work hard and achieve goals, you can then achieve bigger goals. Being able to work hard and smart will lead you to a great future.

  19. When a person keeps pegging away it means that they keep trying. When you keep trying to achieve a goal you keep getting closer even if you fail on your previous tries. You learn from your failure and errors, and you work to improve on those areas. For example, many of last year varsity teammates would always work on their weaknesses. Some would shoot free throws, jump shoots, or lay ups. It was just the matter on what they felt they needed to improve on. But we would always keep trying to make ourselves better players.

  20. if you keep pegging away then you will be able to achieve what you want. just like abraham lincoln did, he kept pegging for what he wanted and he ended up freeing the slaves from slavery and he also wanted to become president, so he kept pegging and eventually he became president.

  21. I think that everyone should keep pegging away when it comes to life goals. When it comes to pegging it gives you more chances in life and no matter how small or how big those chances are they can completely change your life in a whole new way. I think this quote is trying to say is to not give up in life, to pick yourself up if you fail. If at first you don't succeed then next time you will and to keep your head up and keep following your dreams.

  24. i think when you choose the right decisions and keep choosing the right decisions you dont really have to stop and think what to choose.by then you would already know what to do and what to believe in. everybody should choose the right not only for themselves but for everybody around the. we should all keep on trying in our studies and good habits so we can accomplish something in the future

  25. I think that what is trying to be said by pegging away is that if you keep trying and don't give up, you can accomplish anything. But, if you don't try you'll never know if you would've been able to do it. Just like how it's said," Practice makes perfect."

  26. The meaning of this quote is that you will keep trying even if you scored already. For example if your in a baseball team and you win champions, even though you have scored and made your goal you have to keep trying to be the best you can be. A person is never supposed to give up, they have to keep trying and trying. It doesn't hurt more to score more then what you have. Be a true champion and continue on what you do.

  27. This quote seems very inspirational to me. To try again on each and every day to persist. To come closer to your goal and take one step at a time. If it's a tremendous goal that you have then you probably wont be able to acomplish it over night or in a week. It will probably take a grade deal amount of time but if you keep pegging away day by day then eventually you will succeed and reach your goal.

  30. Pegging will get you anywhere you would want to go example, is if you keep trying and trying and you pick up techniques to basketball. it will get you far and you can take it to a whole different level and become an NBA star. so keep trying so you yourself can improve little by little.

    and try your best to achieve your goals.
    for example going your work and finishing your homework
    in return you get a better grade and that helps you achieve a step ahead to you dreams but you have to do that till you get up there.

  32. Pegging away. By pegging away you will always be a winner and a champion. Try, try, and try again and again and again, never give up. You can also be a champion like Larry Bird, Lincoln, Kobe, etc. Life is all about trying. Without trying, you will never get nowhere. Work hard and be persistence. Have confident in yourself. Try, try, and try until you accomplish that goal you want. Never give up because if you do, you will accomplish nothing and your goals will be disappear. If you try every day to achieve your big goal, you get 1 inch closer in accomplishing your goal. Choosing the right will help you with everything. CHOOSE THE RIGHT!!!

  38. What this means is that if you don't get what you want the first time then keep trying to get it. Just like Abraham Lincoln he didn't get become president right off the bat. But he kept on striving to get it and he did become the president. It's like striving to be great you might not get it the first time. But if you keep pegging at it you will become great.

  39. I agree because it's like saying "Never give up" try your best. Try to reach your goal even though you see it impossible try don't give up so fast. Because if you don't later on in the future your going to say "ah why didn't i try i would of been doing what i like to do". Like things like that a goal that you want that's why and saying try your best! CHOOSE THE RIGHT!!!
