The speech on how to overcome challenges and stop comparing yourself to others by Dean Furness was really a different experience for me. There he discussed his earlier life, which he had spent before the unfortunate situation happened in December 2011. According to his speech, a five-foot-tall, 700 pound bale of hay had fallen on him while he was going to feed their horses. And he described his feelings at that moment and how his life had changed due to this accident by letting him sit in a wheel chair forever. And he related how he stands in his mind while his abnomial muscles are no longer working. He further expressed how he faced real world situations by being disabled and how he made a path for himself as a marathoner. He also describes how he stood on his weaknesses without comparing himself to others, by being a challenge to his failures.
After listening to Dean's speech, I first felt really sorry for him and his situation. But when deeply analysing the ideas he brought through his speech, it brought more motivation for me than any other motivational video. It was a totally different experience than I ever had, and it remains as an immortal feeling in my mind. Actually, I learned from this video how to stand up to our obstacles in life without running away by allowing them to remain.
I think this video can impact the whole society and is very useful for everyone, mainly for the younger generation.So this speech persuaded me to correct some mistakes in my decision-making, and the spirit of this speech will be highly helpful for me when facing challenges in my future life.
