Even thought there are many difficult obstacles that we face in our life, I think we all can overcome these obstacles if we know how to deal with it in the right way. I believe that being patient and positive are the most important factors that help us to overcome our obstacles.

First of all, I believe that being patient plays an important role in overcoming our obstacles. In the life nothing comes easily, and we all have to face many obstacles that may take a while in order to overcome them. For instance, in the novel Warriors Don’t Cry by Melba Beal, who was one of the nine black students in the Central High School during the segregation time. She had faced so many obstacles in her school that required her to be so patient, and one of them was to complete her academic year. She had faced a lot of harassments and physical violence. Moreover, that the governor of the state and most of leaders were against the integration and attending the black students to the school, so they were waiting any mistakes from them to get them out from the school. A day she came backs to her home, and she was too angry from a white student who harassed her. Her grandma advised her to be patient, and she asked her to not fight them back in order to continue in the school and graduate from the school. Later on, she got harassed from some of the white students again. She was so patient with them, and she always acted with them as nothing was happened. She always tried as much as she could to avoid fighting with them or saying anything to them. Which fortunately led her at the end to over her obstacle, and graduated from the school. This example clearly shows how it is necessary to be patient in facing our obstacles because if she were not patient with her situations, she wouldn’t graduate from the school.

In addition to being patient with the obstacles, staying focused on the positives instead of the negatives is a major key to overcome the obstacles. No matter what obstacles the have come in our way, staying positive will allow us to overcome our obstacles. For example, my uncle Abdullah is a businessman in Saudi Arabia. He had a huge obstacle in the early nineties that he overcame it. He had a company that specialized in agricultural equipment, and his company’s factories had a huge fire that destroyed the entire factories and caused losses worth around 23 millions dollar at that time. Two years age, my uncle and I were discussing, and I asked him about the secret of his success and how did he overcame that obstacle. He told me that staying focused in the positives was always the reason behind his success story. It helped him a lot to insist in overcoming the obstacles and restore the ambitions or goals that he had. He said that he found that there was still some chance to recover the losses and reactivate the company again, and he reminded himself that he started from the zero point which was much more difficult challenge than recovering the losses so there was no reason for him to gave up. This showed me that looking to the bright side of our obstacles and being positive would always motivate us to try to overcome our obstacles and not to give up, and we would feel optimistic when we looked to the positives of our obstacles.
