I facilitate an emerging leaders/wellbeing program into high-schools in Brisbane and last term at their graduation, I told 7x Yr 10 girls that when life hits you or you have obstacles in your way, learn to pivot.
Learn from the situation, don't feel like a failure and continue to move forward in life.
It's the same message for everyone who is moving forward in life.
Growth comes from being out of the comfort zone, stepping into the unknown, learning and pivoting around obstacles, no matter how big or small that seem, to chase that goal or dream.
