Diligence - Worth the Work!

Today in our meeting time, we read a story entitled Worth the Work. It was about a boy who needed some extra help in reading. He had to give up his Saturday mornings for six weeks for tutoring and at first was not too happy about it. After the six week tutoring sessions ended, he was really doing well in reading. He decided that the work was worth it and giving up his Saturday mornings was worth it, too! He had diligence... he did not give up and worked really hard on something was difficult for him! How have you shown diligence recently?
