Overcoming Obstacles

"Foundational skills are missing & she's having difficulty keeping up ."

A student was falling behind in math, which was affecting her progress and general attitude about school. Once a willing contributor during discussions, she was now more reserved and seemed pensive and quiet.

"I get distracted when there are too many steps, and it's confusing when I don't know what to do." The student provided necessary insight into what was difficult and getting in the way of her learning.

Like this student, we face obstacles at home, school, work, and relationships. A seemingly insurmountable obstacle can be incredibly daunting and tiresome.

What obstacles are you facing?

Does the obstacle seem insurmountable?

What tools do you use when facing a challenge or obstacle?

Obstacles can be broken into smaller pieces, and tools can be used. Skills are developed with practice and repetition, one day at a time. Reach out when you need support.

Take Note - In time, you'll see how much you've grown, how far you've come, and all you've learned.
