Persistence and opportunity

After I discarded my used tissues, I couldn't help but think that great, unrecognized talent is all around us. Also, that success is a result of incredible persistence and having just the right opportunity open the door for us.

I wonder how many great Rembrandts are toiling away in the quiet solitude in their lonely studios and who will never be recognized, because the persistence wasn't there and the opportunity never occurs.

Can persistence allow for opportunities to occur? It seems to make sense to me.
