The quote stated by Michael Jordan in this image states “ I've failed over and over and over again in my life and this is why I succeed”. I believe this piece of media is communicating that one should never give up and always strive for success. If one doesn't strive for success in times of adversity, than one will fail. When Michael Jordan is stating this quote, I believe he is referencing to his experience of not making his high school varsity basketball team. Instead of quitting Michael Jordan worked tirelessly at his basketball skills in order to improve and make the basketball team. By following the lesson of this quote, he then received a collegiate basketball scholarship to play at the University of North Carolina, and then got drafted to the NBA, and won multiple championships with the Chicago Bulls. The technique this is used to make this quote more appealing, is that the quote is placed on a picture of Michael Jordan dunking from the free throw line, which at the time many people thought was impossible. The intended audience, is everybody in the world because everybody goes through adversity and everybody can fight through it. I also intend to use this in times of adversity in my life. I think this quote is accurate because any one can overcome anything. They just have to be willing to put the work in.
