Episode 57: Ever Upward

Life presents us with many challenges. Some of us are met with those challenges from birth. Others find obstacles later in life in jobs or relationships. Regardless of your status in this world, there will be roadblocks before you.

What we'll be judged on is how we met those challenges, facing them head-on. Sometimes it's alone. Other times, it's with those we've gathered around us. One young man followed that path and years later, was met with the ultimate irony.

"Success comes to the lowly and to the poorly talented, but the special characteristic of a great person is to triumph over the disasters and panics of human life."

– Seneca
