Relentless

To keep going no matter what. To be determined and never stop trying — even when things are hard or seem impossible.

Examples:

1- James Dyson was relentless — he created over 5,000 failed versions of his vacuum before one finally worked.

2- Her relentless belief in herself helped her finish the race, even after falling twice.

Hello and welcome to Daily English, where we learn English through real stories. You can find the full transcript in the description. Today’s story is about a man who was rejected over a thousand times — and still didn’t stop. What Happens? In the 1990s, a young man named James Dyson had an idea for a new kind of vacuum cleaner — one without a bag, using cyclone technology.

He built a prototype. Then another. And another. He made 5,126 failed prototypes. Most people would have quit after 20. Maybe 100.
 But Dyson kept going. He pitched the product to company after company. No one wanted it.
 They said it was too strange. Too expensive. Too risky. But he was relentless. Eventually, after more than 1,000 rejections, he found a company in Japan that agreed to sell it.
 From there, it took off. Today, Dyson is a global brand — and James Dyson is a billionaire inventor.  But it all started with relentless effort — failure after failure, and the courage to keep going.

 Word of the Day: Relentless To be relentless means: To keep going no matter what. To be determined and never stop trying — even when things are hard or seem impossible.

Examples: James Dyson was relentless — he created over 5,000 failed versions of his vacuum before one finally worked.
Her relentless belief in herself helped her finish the race, even after falling twice.
If you’re relentless in learning English, progress is only a matter of time.
