Overcoming Obstacles

I have faced many obstacles in my life and have been through many hardships. However, I always overcome them in one way or another. For example, when I first walked the halls of Harlingen High School I entered as a shy but ambitions freshman with a lot of friends and unfortunately a lot of enemies. I was always put down due to play playing ability in band. I constantly tried to get better and better and that’s when freshman region auditions came along. I was excited to be able to actually compete with others so I can finally prove myself to my peers and teachers. I stumbled through my pre-audition and wasn’t able to audition and that killed me inside. I practiced so hard to not be able to audition. Although I was never any good I decided to

To me "success" is when a person overcomes obstacles, in order to achieve their goals, no matter how big or small. Everyone in life has a goal, whether it's to have a great occupation, or to get over a phobia. Once a goal is set, people come up with their own plan in order to complete their goal, where they will reach success. Sometimes people will often give up their on goal during the process of achieving it, due to the overwhelming difficulty of their personal obstacles. With motivation, support, and strength, there's no obstacle that people cannot overcome, these are the three elements to success.

Think about it as a subject at school it may be boring, but it will be worth it in the future. So if you're having a hard time in life this quote can help you, and believe me I was in your shoes one day.

Time management is an on-going challenge that is important for my overall sucess. I currently work a full time job that requres many hours of travel. Gradaute work requires many dedicated hours of study time. Maintaining a healthy lifesytle is important for my overall well being. One challenge that I must overcome is maintaining enough sleep. One goal that I am working on to impove my sleep hygeine is to go to bed at the same time everynight and disconnect from social devices in my bedroom. Another goal is scheduling most of my work for completion before noon, when I am most alert.

Growing up I lived with my mother, father, and siblings. Around the age 15 my mother and father separated. I have always been the person who set goals for myself. I had support from my family and friends with everything that i did. I had a pretty close relationship with my siblings growing up even though we were all very different. I played basketball from 3rd grade up until 10th grade and after high school, decided to go away to college.

My main plan to complete both my co-requisite and 111 English course is to do my assignments as soon as I can so I will have enough time and concentration to do them. This plan is the same for the time I plan on working on the final writing assignments for each course. But as every aim, you always have to face obstacles if you want to achieve your goal. Thus, the obstacle that has already been presented is the lack of time due to the fact that I often wait until the minute to do my assignments because I spend most of my time doing unimportant things instead of doing important things, such as my assignments. Another obstacle is as English is not my mother-tongue, I struggle to make constructive sentences and comprehensive essays and this problem

Something in my life that I think goes unnoticed is my ability to overcome obstacles that get in my way. I learned at a very young age how to deal with serious events and problems. My life hasn’t been easy and the fact that I am alive is a miracle. On March 15, 1998, my parents were on their way home from a business trip when they were hit by a drunk driver just miles from home. My mother was also 32 weeks pregnant with me at that time and we were not expected to make it. My dad broke his arm, while my mom suffered a horrific traumatic brain injury and other major physical injuries. She had to learn everything all over again. Growing up with a mentally and physically disabled mom was extremely difficult. She would do weird things and get angry

Benjamin Disraeli once said, “There is no education like adversity,” a quote that resonates well with me. Through twelve years of schooling, countless advanced classes, and learning opportunities, I would consider myself well-educated; in reality nothing has prepared me for life as much as my biggest obstacle. Two weeks, vital time for a developing fetus. However, what happens without those last two weeks? In my case I was still developing my final touches, the consequence being bilateral hearing loss.

Life. these four short letters describe something so big. It describes our whole past and our whole future. It describes every sad moments that we have been though and every happy moments that we have experienced. Most importantly, it describes our obstacles which have created our paths to the bright future and some day we will foresee these obstacles. I have failed many times in my Life and also have faced many obstacles whether it was losing a though game of basketball to having trouble coming to America. I overcame these obstacles by finding out my mistakes and learning from them. Finding out what was bringing me down and finding a solution to that problem in systematic way.

People are faced with obstacles on a daily basis, but it is how a person deals with the obstacle that really reveals their true character. I personally believe that obstacles are present in order to demonstrate how much one really desires to achieve a particular goal. While growing up, I was a stereotypical awkward “pre-teen” that grew too fast for his age: I was not fast enough for basketball, not coordinated enough for baseball, and definitely not nimble enough for soccer. It was here in middle school when I was faced with obstacles, but it is how I dealt with these obstacles that taught me many lessons and turned me into the person I am today.

Prior start to exercise, yoga, meditation or eating healthy and clean, I thought about the barriers and challenges that may limit my ability to initiate these actions. In addition, it is important to know the challenges and barriers because it will enable me to understand how I am going to achieve my goal and work hard for it. One of the challenge is to find the time and effort to initiate the action. Physical activity and yoga exercise for instance, for me I enjoy working in group, but I did not have the resources or time to join the gym (no transportation, course-work load, and working on my research). Thus, I decided to sign up for an online personal trainer and the trainer assisted me to incorporate physical activity, meditation and yoga

We all have obstacles we have overcome in our lives and still need to down the road. The quote from philosopher Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzche, “What does not kill me makes me stronger” (Nietzche, 1888) states that it is in the event or challenge that strengthens the individual, but research points more to the role of individual responses. Another statement in the article is “Approaching life’s challenges in a positive, optimistic way by demonstrating self-control stamina and good character with your choices and actions” (Hefferon & Boniwell, 2011). I’ve always heard that saying what does not kill me makes me stronger. I believe that saying because all hardships we go through in life makes us wiser and stronger. We learn from the obstacles we overcame

When I was a child, I remember someone telling me, “Obstacles do not block the path, they are the path”. I never truly understood that brief phrase until my own obstacles altered the pace of my life. In life, one is faced with trials and tribulations, which makes for an interesting outlook on life. However, overcoming those very trials and tribulations are what makes life’s outlook meaningful.

Have you ever fought so hard throughout an obstacle you thought maybe you had made the wrong choices, or weren't good enough only to find out in the end the importance of overcoming that obstacle helped you in more ways than ever before?
