00:00Hi, I'm David, and today I'm here to talk to you about the word persistent.

00:05Persistent means not giving up, even when things don't go the way we want them to.

00:10Mr. David, Mr. David, can you play soccer with Elmo?

00:14Not now, Elmo. I'm halfway through something.

00:16Oh, okay.

00:17Okay, going back to persistent, I have an example.

00:20If you want to learn how to dominate the ball like this...

00:23...you have to try and try. You have to be persistent.

00:30Mr. David, is Elmo ready?

00:32Not yet, Elmo.

00:33Okay.

00:34And if you want to be able to play with the ball in your head like this...

00:38...you can't give up. You have to be persistent.

00:44So if you really want to do something...

00:46Oh, Mr. David, please, please, can Elmo and Mr. David play now?

00:50Please, please!

00:52It's good to be persistent, just like my dear furry friend.

00:57Let's go, Elmo. Let's play.

00:59Okay. Persistent!

01:01Don't worry, Mr. Beckham. Elmo will give you an advantage.
