I didn't realize the importance of persistence(坚持) until I took part in the model plane competition last year. It was the time for me to have such an experience. On a wet day before the rain, some black clouds were hanging in the sky. I walked into the competing field with my heart beating fast. I was really nervous while the other were excited. Because they were more skilled, it seemed a little for me to get a prize. I was just a beginner.
I was waiting for my turn, my teacher Ms. Lin came over and told me not to worry. I calmed down and tried to control my plane. But things didn't go as well as I expected. My plane fell to the ground and I I would fail. Soon it was time to take a break, Ms. Lin noticed my bad and encouraged me. However, I became so upset that I told her I would not like the competition. She stopped a second and told me the true meaning of the competition was to beat myself rather than win others.
I understood her. I went back to the field and began to operate my model plane carefully. In the end, I finished fifth.
I was because Ms. Lin helped me out through her kind words. She was completely right. No one can stop you if you never choose to give up.
