This coming Thursday on May 18th at 6:30pm, I will be one of six guest speakers talking about 'Perseverance'. My speech is titled 'The Pitfalls of Perseverance' and below is the promotion write up.
"Robert’s father passed and he returned to Ireland as it fell upon him to give his eulogy, but this trip triggered introspection as he reflected on the last 20 years of his life.
His father said “Life is hard Robert!” and he was right… growing up with the bullying for having a stutter and being gay. Life was a struggle, but he didn’t give up trying to survive in this world.
But as his father’s words echoed in his mind, he wondered if all the hard work he put in was worth it?
Join us on May 18 and experience Robert’s story, as he shares his insight that action and hard work alone is not enough, and it can become a pitfall. “If you keep chasing a goal out of desperation, you wind up exhausted and cynical. We need to know when to stop, take a breath and reassess our goals."
