After reading the chapter Beating The Odds from the book Is Your Child Ready For The World by Dr Anupam Sibal.
We often come across problems that get in our way or obstacles that discourage us. Even our own health can discourage us from our goal, but we shouldn’t let that happen.
Life has ups and downs, and we have to face them. People can only comfort us, but it is we who have to
be brave and strong to face such challenges.
Take the example of Ludwing Van Beethoven, a famous pianist.
Ludwig Van Beethoven had a hearing problem called Tinnitus in which he would get a ringing sound in his ear that made it difficult to hear. Despite facing trouble, he faced this challenge and played the piano like there was no end. He played it with positivity. He was able to make masterpieces even with his hearing problem.
The story of Beethoven is just an example. Your health doesn’t need to be a problem. It can be of any kind, from bullies to serious injuries. It can be anything, but you have to face that challenge with positivity and never give up.
