I think that obstacles lead to growth and ultimately, the most learning I've done in my life is between jobs.

Obstacles, of course, are developmentally necessary: they teach kids strategy, patience, critical thinking, resilience and resourcefulness.

The unsuccessful person is burdened by learning, and prefers to walk down familiar paths. Their distaste for learning stunts their growth and limits their influence.

The biggest obstacle to people becoming better is that you have to really want to be a good person in order to be a better person, and most people would rather be other things.

The road to success has to have obstacles because, at the end of the day, when success comes, it will be that much better.

As we advance in life, we learn the limits of our abilities.

Everyone has to face obstacles. Everybody has to face hurdles. It's what you do with those that determines how successful you're going to be.

Sometimes in the world, there's such pressure to follow a certain path that we forget the importance of learning as we go.

It's part of life to have obstacles. It's about overcoming obstacles; that's the key to happiness.

If you're unwilling to try new things and to fail and learn, you don't have a shot. That doesn't mean you are going to be successful, but you have to try to change.
