Overcoming Challenges

I am about to state the raw and horrible truth; No ones life is perfect. I know we all like to believe everything is La-Di-Da and there is no troubles in our own little bubble of life. But deep down we all know its not true. We all have things that happen that we don't like.

We might get a teacher that we don't like. We might have homework we don't want to do. We all crave things we can't have, and we all fear something at some point in our life. We all have weaknesses, we all have challenges, but that doesn't matter. What matters is what we do to overcome these challenges.

I think the first thing to think about when you are overcoming challenges is rewards. Every good challenge has a reward when we have overcome it, and if your challenge doesn't have a reward than you shouldn't try to overcome it. The second thing to think about is this; everyone does things at their own pace, so don't compare yourself with other people. It will only make your progress in overcoming these challenges go downhill. The third and most important thing is; PERSEVERANCE!

Perseverance is the most important because it is the only thing that will keep you going! If you have a reward and you don't compare yourself to other people, but you have no perseverance, You're lost! If you don't know what perseverance means, here is a definition; Keep on keeping on. It means never giving up. To keep your eye on the prize, the reward.

If you follow this advice I know you will go far. Just remember, number one; Have a reward, number two; Everyone progresses at their own pace, and number three; Keep on keeping on.
