A speaker argues winners differ from everyone else through relentless persistence, not exceptional talent. Most people quit when effort gets hard; winners keep pushing. Olympic sprinters win by a hundredth of a second yet become lifelong heroes for that tiny margin.
It's like God is testing you. Do you mean it? You push and you push and you push and most people quit. The person that just will not relent, there's a point in which God goes, "You're in." But guess what? You don't have to be that much better, just a little bit. Think about the Olympics. The 12 fastest runners on earth run and one wins by a nose hair, by a hundredth of a second. What do we give them? We make them a hero for life for something they did for a few seconds one day when they were better than everyone else on earth. For a microsecond. Now some of you are going, "I'm screwed because I'm slow." One one-hundredth of a second. That's not skill. That's the last second something inside that just won't be defeated. That's heart.
