Is running,swimming a good gauge to test your perseverance?
Not everyone is borned with a good stamina.Stamina can be trained.It determines if u are determined to improve it.Im not talking abt people with heart or health issues.There will be one point in time where they are challlenged to go beyond what they think they can do and what they are used to.
How does a runner train himself?Runs a distance and record his time taken, and the next time run faster at a shorter time.DETermination and perseverance come about when u want to achieve a goal and you use your all to attain it.If as a runner, u constantly set realistic goals, and train hard to achieve them, then your determination lvl increases.Bcos u are determined to achieve that results.Then, ur perseverance lvl increases too as tiny setbacks here and there wont bother u anymore.For example, u want to attain a goal medal during NAPHA test, you would want to train yourself months before that.When you go all out to achieve your goals, u have determination.And the next time you decide that you want to be the top runner in school, you would want to exceed your previous limits.Then, your determination and perseverance level increase again.
Maybe as a runner that's what i think is true.But if u feel that you have better ideas or agree with me feel free to give me your comments.
