Motivational Monday
Keep your face toward the sunshine and shadows will fall behind you.
In life, we encounter many difficulties. We need to realize that, in the midst of every difficulty, there is always a positive aspect. Instead of focusing on the shadows, we need to direct our attention to the sunshine. As an ASVAB tutor, I meet countless people who sign up for my ASVAB prep course with the goals of improving their ASVAB math or verbal score. I meet many people who have been discouraged by taking the exam and failing on multiple occasions. I remind them that they need not be discouraged. They need to address the areas on the exam that need work. Instead of dwelling on the negative, I remind them to dwell on the possibilities. Focus their efforts on improving the necessary skills for the ASVAB. They need to stop looking at the shadows behind them and focus on the sunshine before them.
