 Persistence is trying to accomplish your goals even though you struggle through it, or to keep revising so the product can be the best it can be. I used persistence in the multi-genre Research Paper. In that project I made several dozen drafts to make it better with every draft. Persistence is key in life because without persistence you would never make thing better or get anywhere. Persistence happens all the time. As human beings we are put through struggles every single day but where we flower as people is where persist and overcome our struggles. I feel that without persistence I would not be the person I am today not willing to back down or give up when the going gets tough.
