Argument: Perseverance vs. Talent Imagine this scenario: Two students audition for roles in a summer theater. Both are rejected. One student, who has great acting talent, gives up and takes a sales job for the summer. He knows he will probably get the lead in the fall play at school. The other student, less talented, follows up his rejection with an email requesting an unpaid internship so that he can build his acting skills. He ends up volunteering for the season.

Talent

Explanation:

Perseverance is a strong starting point, especially for those who may not be that gifted when it comes to something like theatre. That being said, in real life scenarios, it is often determined that the easier and faster way to get results is with someone who is naturally gifted. In a working environment, perseverance could be used in group scenarios where scouts would look for "stand out performers". However, when it comes down to it, they are not looking for someone to train, they want someone who's "got that thing".
