Saying No to Barriers

Sometimes things get in the way of our success.  These are setbacks.  Another way to describe them are failures.  For instance, you might get your math test back and learn that you missed most of the problems.  Maybe you were absent for most of the math unit.  You never really caught up with the class, and then you failed your test.  Another example could be that you are training for a BMX bike competition and you wreck and break your wrist.  Ouch!  What now?

It’s really important that we don’t let these obstacles stop our journey to improve.  It’s been said many times, “Success doesn’t come easy.”  Those that understand this idea are able to persevere.  This is being able to overcome the desire to just give up.

These are the stories we need to celebrate.  Check out the video below about a surfer from Brazil.
