I´m from another culture and another language, and I have a little with this challenge. What is the subject of this challenge?
Thanks in advance,
Imagine a photo with some inspiring panorama or subject. Now imagine that the whole photo has a border around it and somewhere in that border is one word blown up very large. Let's imagine a photo of a nail being driven into a piece of wood by a hammer. You see about 1/3 of the nailhead sticking out above the wood and you see a hammer in motion being swung at the nail. Under the photo is the word
P E R S E V E R A N C E in big letters like that.
Down under that word in a much smaller type is a phrase like,
Because no one can drive the whole nail the first time, remember to keep after it until you finish the job.
In American culture posters like this are believed by some people to provide motivation for groups of workers and therefore if you visit America and walk through any large company you are liable to see posters like this on the walls. Now if you're one of the workers at a company like that, you know that a poster doesn't exactly motivate you (more money or better hours or having a cute secretary . . ooops). Anyway, another group of posters has started to get alot of business becuase the workers think that its funny that the companies try to motivate them with posters. Try looking at Despair.com because it is a sarcastic/sardonic view of motivational posters.
Hope this helps with some cultural background on this challenge.
