The Process Of Overcoming Obstacles

Decent Essays
A obstacle I had to overcome was living in the Apartments. Before we got our house we used to live in a Apartment, which was something I disliked. First of all we lived in a apartment that wasn’t in really good conditions. The apartment had cockroaches which was a very common bug that we would find in there. Sometimes we would try to clean and buy something to kill the cockroaches but it was useless because they would keep coming from other apartments where our neighbors didn’t clean. Another thing that was very disturbing was that our neighbors smoked a lot and and the smell would spread out from each apartment. Also our neighbors liked to throw parties where they would have their music very loud and wouldn’t let us sleep. I’m very thankful

IRIS is supposed to serve as a tool for an unscrupulous defense contractor, but after being struck by lightning she decides to attend a freedom rally in Scottsburg, Indiana instead.

Another example from the video was Walt Disney, who was fired from a news for lacking imagination and having no ideas. Equally important, Albert Einstein could not speak until he was four years old.…
