Over Coming

I think it is safe to say that, the over coming great obstacles is a recurring theme in today society. It is portray as some heroic deed or something that forces the main character to grow as they work out their problems. Almost all of these obstacles seem like it is external, fighting the man for example or a school bully.

But what most people would often over look is over coming ones' self. Most people don't really analyze or that, they look at themselves through one set of lens. The ones that are lucky can either step back and critically analyze themselves or if they're truly lucky, they got friends that aren't afraid to point out theirs flaws.

I've met quite a few people that blamed their problems on other things, things that they have no control of, but the truth is: most of it are excuses. Man up, seriously. Find solutions. Change the mentality of impossible, to how can I over come this? Most of the time, the problem is they haven't really tried. They didn't put in the hours or the sweat. Sure they might try to take a stab at it but they didn't invest enough time.
