I�m teaching my student English through inspirational words. Please let me know if it�s grammatically natural to say the followings:

Success is about persistence and doing what you love.

Success takes persistence to do what you love.

Success comes from persistence and doing what your love.

Thanks for your help.

Hello Swim -

#3 sounds the most natural

#1 sounds okay, too

#2 does not work

'It takes persistence to be successful at what you love."

A very 'inspirational' approach to teaching English; keep up the good work! Philo
