We all run into our share of obstacles.

Sometimes, those obstacles can get the best of us.

To persevere, it helps to surround yourself with people who know what you’re going through.

This means you have to be open about the challenges you face.

In an article posing the question, “Why are some people so good at persisting?”

If only they had shared their challenges, maybe I or someone in their data pipe could have helped.

It’s natural to be afraid to share your challenges or difficulties.

Maybe you’re embarrassed that things aren’t coming as easy as you’d hoped.

Or maybe you simply don’t want to bother people with your problems.

But you might be surprised at just how well others can empathize with your challenges.
