You either do it or you don't. The really crucial thing is to embrace your failures & learn from them.
Honestly getting out of bed can be a pain , even more so when you just not ready for the day to start. But it takes extreme amounts of pressure to make the most rear of gems, without challenges life would be mundane, dull and boring . It takes a great challenge to know what we are made of , if you are the type of person who will sink or swim when thrown into deep water.

Well, challenges make us strong and mature. With each challenge we overcome, we learn what we exactly want, which is a great motivation towards growth and success.Debbyemi wrote:In Bluewater Walkabout, the author experienced challenges which she overcame. There is also a popular adage that says "challenges are stepping stones to success". How true is this, and how often do we need challenges to succeed. Is it also possible to succeed without challenges. Share your views about that.

I agree with this, but I don't think that challenges are needed for success. There are those who (seemingly) have everything handed to them; but also, it really depends on how you are defining "success".Amagine wrote:I absolutely do agree that challenges are needed for growth. If you're not being challenged, you'll never learn and grow.
