These records didn't happen on the first try.



2 Examples of Steadfastness and Perseverance:

Thomas Edison: Inventor

Edison was asked if he seemed like a loser after thousands of attempts and if he should stop, Edison responded with this famous quote, "Young man, why would I quit now? And why would I consider stopping now? I uncovered over 9,000 ways that an electric light bulb will not work. Victory is near in my hands" He later figured it out around the 10,000 tests mark.

Roger Bannister: He ran the world's fastest mile.

Before May 6, 1954 no runner had been able accomplish a mile under 4 minutes. Most athletes had been tricked into thinking this as too challenging or even impossible, Roger saw he could do it. But after a stinging failure in the 1952 Olympics, he actually considered quitting. He spent a long time deciding if he should continue. But he decided to persevere. In just two years he defeated the barrier to the first faster than four minute mile and was the new world record holder. Funny enough, many runners have since done this after realizing the benchmark he set.
