When you're working towards a goal, there will be times when you feel discouraged. When those feelings occur, please don't see them as a sign that you should give up, that you're not meant to take this dream on, or that you will never figure out how to achieve it.

Your discouragement is a sign of just one thing: you need someone to remind you of who you really are. Of your unique strengths and of your talents. Of your hopes and passions. Of the reason that you started pursuing this goal in the first place.

Don't give up—ask for support instead.
