Tapping into your Passions to Press Through Difficulties
Manage episode 185879288 series 1525312
It's the start of a new semester at Marquette University. It begins with so much hope, but sometimes that's not how it ends. I've seen students with great potential not stick it through to the end. Along the journey, they're stretched too much outside their comfort zone, face challenges they hadn't anticipated or get so far behind, they're not certain how they can make it through. We all can feel that way at times, it's life, but we can't stay there.
Today's episode of Stories that Touch your Heart offers some hope when you're in that situation and it comes from two college students, Claire Kopperud and Nick Ormsby. They each tapped into their passions to tell audio stories of interesting people in Milwaukee, which is something neither student had done before. Claire's love of photography and Nick's passion for soccer gave each of them additional strength to press through the difficulties, complete the assignment, and do it well, with finals and other projects looming in the background.
