Overcoming Challenges

Challenges are... well, a challenge! If challenges were easy, then how would anyone ever learn. Challenges are opportunities for growth throughout life. At the beginning of life, there are many challenges we face, and they are placed right in front of us. We have to overcome them to progress, like learning to communicate (talk), learning to walk before running, and so on. Later in life, we seek after challenges like learning and competing in a sport, furthering our education, starting our own business, and so on. One reason I want to become an Entrepreneur is because I know it will be a challenge. It will be a challenge that I will be excited about, and I hope to learn as much as I can.
Challenges take effort to overcome, and sometimes I am tempted to not put forth the required effort, or to give up on a challenge. I liked Jeffrey R. Holland's advice to keep going, that good things will come. Life should be about embracing challenges instead of trying to avoid them. I hope when the time comes, that I will have the strength of character to embrace and endure those challenges that will help me grow and rise to the next level.
