Challenges are something we all have and go through on a day to day basis, whether they are big or small.

A challenge doesn't always mean winning a prize in a competition between two teams or doing hard work — even though those are challenges we may endure in our life. Challenges can be physical, mental, or emotional.

Some physical examples can include losing a body ligament in an accident or if someone went to war, or in some rarity, maybe they were born without it.

A mental challenge is one that I find more popular because it is one that can be treated. One example that comes to mind is having depression or anxiety which is very common. Even though we can't always see it in other people, we can go to the doctor and get medication to help.

An example of an emotional challenge is one that I have personally gone through, and that is going through a breakup. Even though there are probably many examples of each, these are just a select few that came to mind.

Here is a question: would life really be like if we didn't have challenges?

We all struggle with something. Whether it's trying to train for a marathon or just trying to pass your next exam with an A to pass the class, just remember you have friends to look up to and help you along the way. Friends and family are a key staple in our life and we should use them for support because, let's agree, our life wouldn't be the same without them.

You never know until you get to know someone what challenges they have and/or have gone through. And who knows, it might be the same or similar challenge you have gone through or are going through right now.

Remember: no matter how tough the challenge is, you can conquer anything.
