Sometimes life doesn't seem very fair. You might do badly on test or not get chosen for a team. You might feel badly and want to give up.
If you talk to famous successful people you might find that they have suffered many setbacks in the lives.
In fact one of the world's most famous basketballers, Michael Jordan, was not picked for his high school team. Instead of giving up he decided to practice every day and became one of the world's most famous basketballers.
Have you ever suffered a setback in your life?
What did you do to overcome it?

Dear Stephanie,
ReplyDeleteYes I have a set back in life, it was when I tried out for Basket Ball. I don't think I tried hard enough, and I didn't get in the interest list. But I'll try my hardest on Monday!

I wasn't pick for a basketball team and I felt like giving after that, but I didn't and I kept practicing my ball skills with basketballs, soccer balls and tennis balls. My hand eye co-ordination is better than ever and my feet work isn't half bad either. Now i'm trying out for Tawa intermediete basketball team.

ReplyDeleteHi Stephanie
ReplyDeleteI had a setback when I was in year five- my friend told me that I couldn't sing just because I had a higher voice than her, but I overcame it by singing and singing and I developed my voice and now she never tells me I can't sing! (It turned that she was jealous.)
