This past weekend my wife and I revisited Asheville, NC for the second year in a row. Last year we thought’d be a good idea to take pictures of each letter for the purpose of making magnets for our new refrigerator. What you see below is our creation, but the crazy thing is we were unable to use them for our intended purpose due to our refrigerator having a non-stick front!

Rather than let this scouting go to complete waste, I thought it would serve as the perfect visual representation of my next blog series.

By now, you have to come to identify my blog with overcoming adversity, endurance and perseverance both physically, mentally and emotionally as well as general leadership topics.

For the next “26” posts, I will highlight a specific word relating to each of my key blog topics. Think of it as the ABCs of overcoming!

I hope you enjoy this next series as much as I look forward to writing it!
