Chapter two discusses the importance of never giving up on your dreams. Cinderella certainly did not give up and you can’t either. I have provided a few examples of modern day heroes who never gave up. Take some time this week to find more examples.
One thing you will find if you study the lives of any of these heroes is they all possess one very important trait. It’s a quality that you will have to develop before you will ever find lasting success in your endeavors. That quality or skill is deligence.
Below are the names of famous people who overcame common issues such as drug abuse, dropping out of school, being poor, etc. Do an internet search for each name listed below and learn a bit about how each one accomplished their dream. Beside each name, give a brief summary of the challenges they faced and how they used deligence to over come it.
On your own: in your notebook, look for people that inspire you. What did they do to overcome obstacles to get to where they are at today? There are thousands of stories of people who overcame adversities. Find one you can relate to and see how they overcame and succeeded. What kind of example are they to you?
