What does he mean by patience, persistence and perspiration? (My take on it anyway)

Patience - Unless your winning the lottery you aren't getting rich over night. Remember your life is going to pass you bye, so you need to decide how your going to fill it. Meaning are you going to make decisions that will benefit you or not.

Persistence - This simply means consistent action over an extended period of time. Most of have a tendency to drop what were doing after a short period of time. All you have to do is look at your new years resolution, your diet or maybe your savings account.

Perspiration - Effort, Effort and more Effort! refer to persistence for details.
