I definitely felt like giving up when the interviews starting to come up. I thought I wasn't going to get them done in time because of the people I had interviews with. I said to myself "should I even do it or should I just take the zero"? I did it and I'm glad I did because it will help me in the long run. What really pulled me through the tough times was the light at the end of the tunnel. If I perform well and get a good grade, then it will turn out well for me in the long run. I definitely feel like I have developed a tenacious attitude within the last two months because I have been focused on getting my schoolwork done and making sure everything is done correctly.
Three tips that I would give in order to develop the tenacious mindset and the skills to support it would be to have some type of motivation. If you are motivated towards a goal, you will most likely work hard towards achieving that goal rather than nothing having something to look forward to. In order to develop a tenacious mindset, ignore all the negative feedback you might receive. Not everyone is going to agree with your posts or comments. You have to be able to take it and not take offense to it at all. Lastly, stay up to date on your work and be ahead of the game! If you are ahead of the game and are always ready for what is coming at you (especially the cupcakes) then you will succeed in this class.

In this photo you see Emily Meeseman holding the WNBA Finals MVP trophy. She has worked all season to get where she is and she has the tenacious mindset and it paid off in the end.
I definitely agree with you that the interviews were a little tough. I have a slightly niche market and all of the people I had to interview are blue collar and are not interested in talking or thinking about work after they get off of work. I started a week early with this in mind and still didn't get enough replies until the day before the assignment was due.
