MOTIVATION OF PERSISTING IN STRIVIING

If I had a opportunity of asking a famous person about one specific question, I would extremely appreciate this chance. Personally speaking, I would like to ask Michael Jordan, a famous player who once played in Chicago Bulls of NBA -- National Basketball Association, this question: how have you managed to keep fighting for your ideal goal for several years?

As a threshold matter, it is comprehensively recognized that Michael Jordan is one of the most successful basketball player in U.S.A. His determination, persistence, and innate trait are considered paramount, indispensible factors in Michael's achievement among thousands of his fans. Within Michael's athletic career, he won six final championships, which is hardly parallel today. Moreover, Michael's life outside courtyard exemplifies a man's duty and obligation as well. Thus, it is no wonder that millions of young basketball player all over the world want to be the second "Michael Jordan".

Then, since Michael has attained so much glorious accomplishment, there must be something special Michael deeply holds. The superficial reason may be contributed to his all year long exercising, training and practicing. However, when it comes to essence of Michael's hard work, the question aforementioned in my response arises: How can you keep striving for several years? This is a question that common people cannot answer. Is it his father's encouragement? Is it his children's hope? Or, is it someone else, for example, Michael's best teammate Pipen?

This question can only be consummately answered by Michael. No one else could provide alternative response. If it were his father's influence, I would be better able to understand how a crucial impact a father could have on his offspring. In this case, I would require myself to be strictly eligible when I have sons and daughters. If it were Michael's friend -- Pipen, I would more cherish my comrades than now. I know they are my intimate fellows, and strangers cannot replace them. If it were children's hope, I would improve my morality in order to be a good father.

In summary, if I had such a rare opportunity to ask Michael Jordan this question, I would learn a lot from his response. Furthermore, comparing Michael's experiences and mine would definitely make me become a better father, a reliable comrade of my friends, and exemplified tutor of next generation.
