The whole passage is an example of the authors purpose to persuade, and at least in this case, for a good purpose, which is motivating the reader.
But in the middle of the text, the use of the "evidence" persuasive technique, providing facts of people who overcame challenges, is totally clear.
In the three-way persuasive techniques approach (Ethos, pathos and logos), this historical examples would be evidence of the logos technique (logical knowledge).
1. gerund phrase - the verbal ending in -ing that is used as a noun is called a gerund
2. verb phrase - just a regular verb and all of the words surrounding it
3. adverb phrase - functions the same way as an adverb, which means that it answers questions such as when, where, why, how, etc.
4. participial phrase - although a participle looks the same as a gerund, it is never used as a noun, but rather as an adjective, or adverb

Explanation:
In any composition writing, paragraphs and statements are arranged in such a way that they provide the best feel of what the topic is about. It also enables the organized representation of any given topic.
And in such compositions, there are certain use/ reasons on why certain things are done. Like for example, <u>reasons are given or added in a sentence/ statement/ paragraph to show or tell why so and so happen</u>. Reasons provide the "why" of things, giving us useful valid points on why things happen.
<u>Examples are a way of proving a given point.</u> It gives added information to make the point easier to understand.
<u>Incidents are also used as they are proof of what has happened</u>. They give the proof, but also with evidence that explains the actual circumstances giving validity to the claim made.
