“Houston, we have a problem” or Dealing with set backs on the road to achieving your goals
By George Thompson

If the movies have taught us anything it’s that there will be a time when the hero looks defeated and all is lost., (such as the case in real life ) especially when we are trying to achieve our life’s dream. It seems as though the universe plops a huge wall in front of you just as you’re going along nicely. Set backs and disappointments are inevitable, but the mistake we often make is to dwell on them or allow them to discourage us altogether from pursuing our passion. Instead of throwing in the towel ,view set backs as lessons that will only make you better in the long run. Examine the set back and ask questions: How do I adjust to this? How do I turn this around? What can I take from this to avoid the same pit fall next time? As we’ve seen in countless Hollywood blockbusters, when the hero looks defeated, when the whole world seems against him, when only a miracle can save him, Our hero becomes his own miracle, learns from his earlier failure and goes on to save the day. BECOME YOUR OWN HERO!!!
Remember this :Even if you chip away at a wall with a metal spoon, that wall will eventually fall.
