Perseverance

      Now that we have summit, school has been so much harder. These focus areas piling on top of each other, it's like never ending. Summit has been very tough because, #1, I'm still getting used to the whole new platform, and #2, these focus areas need time and thought put into them, and it takes more than a day or two to get most of them done. I persevered because this is my education, and even though it is hard I'm not going to just give up. Of course I needed patience though, because to be able to have go preserve through something like this, you do need patience to get it done and tolerance to failure as well, because failure with this is not uncommon.

     Some traits Nick Vujicic has is self-confidence, courage, and of course perseverance. How he had self confidence is because he doesn't let what other people effect the way he sees himself, and he also doesn't hide himself. He actually goes out. He also respects himself enough to not let anyone change his mind on things about himself. How he has courage is he isn't ashamed of himself, or his appearance. He goes out and lives his life with no regrets, and no hesitation. When he goes out he does so many things, and he speaks to people. He has so much bravery and so much courage, and I have so much respect for him for living life to the fullest. Lastly, he has perseverance because he meets and faces new challenges every day, but he still does everything and he doesn't let them stop him. Even when he gets knocked down, he picks himself up and continues doing what he's doing. To me, that's so great.

     My time of perseverance does not compare to his time of perseverance at all. Mine was just about having a little bit of stress because of work. He lost so much, and still pushed through. That's something that honestly gains so much respect from so many people, including me.
