Summary

This quote highlights the thin distinction between negative stubbornness and the positive attribute of unwavering determination. Stubbornness implies an inflexible and obstinate mindset that resists change or alternative perspectives, often leading to stagnation. On the other hand, dogged determination denotes a persistent and resolute attitude towards achieving a desired goal, enabling individuals to overcome obstacles and persevere in the face of adversity. The key difference lies in being adaptable and open to feedback while maintaining an unwavering focus on achieving success.
