prevailers
Ones who succeed
Prevailers are those who prevail—who succeed, overcome, or prove stronger than opposing forces.
The word carries a tone of persistence against difficulty: The prevailers in any negotiation are those who refuse to back down.
It appears in motivational and religious contexts, where endurance through hardship is celebrated.
