BODY/ DEVELOPMENT

1 Example of a person facing many challenges (The first part is being presented by Mai Lan)

Walt Disney, the visionary force behind the entertainment industry, navigated a plethora

of challenges on his extraordinary path to success

In the nascent stages of his filmmaking career, Disney encountered a series of setbacks and financial difficulties due to the initial lack of success with his innovative ideas However, his unwavering persistence and tenacity in the face of adversity set him apart

In 1928, Disney introduced the world to the beloved character Mickey Mouse, marking a turning point in the realm of entertainment Nevertheless, triumphs were accompanied by tribulations as Disney grappled with financial woes and the demanding nature of the creative process

A significant setback occurred when Disney lost the rights to Oswald the Lucky Rabbit Yet, in the face of this setback, he channeled his creativity into the development of iconic characters such as Donald Duck and Goofy, showcasing his resilience and adaptability The creation of Disneyland, a colossal and intricate undertaking, was met with skepticism and doubt from various quarters Despite this, Disney pressed forward, fueled

by an unyielding determination Disneyland eventually opened its doors in 1955, transforming mto a monumental success and a testament to Disney's visionary leadership

Walt Disney's ability to surmount obstacles wasn't solely attributed to his creative genius but was equally rooted in his enduring patience and relentless determination His life narrates a compelling story, one of a man persistently confronting challenges, emerging victorious, and leaving behind an enduring legacy that continues to shape the world of entertainment

Walt Disney gives us lessons: even though life has many difficulties and challenges, we should be calm and confident to face the challenges

2 Definition of “Challenge” and common reason (The second part is being presented by Tuyet Nhung)

21, Definition of “Challenge”

Challenges are factors that cause difficulties and hinder the development of jobs, a plan, and a potential that people must overcome In life, challenges always exist as an mevitable rule in the operation and growth of each individual as well as the entire society

Life never runs out of challenges is an awareness of the laws of life, it is both a summary and a reward, as well as a reminder and warning to remind everyone : If you want to

achieve outstanding success, you need to establish an opposing angle and overcome challenges

2.2 Common reason

Difficulties and challenges are inevitable in human life People always have to face challenges in life, work, study and in all social relationships No one lives without

facing challenges in life

People need to go through challenges to grow Difficulties and obstacles are an inevitable requirement, a driving force for people to strive and rise in life People need to be courageous and know how to face and overcome challenges in order to fully survive, grow and aim for outstanding success On the contrary, if people are weak, do not dare to face and overcome challenges, and conveniently surrender and give up, they will admit failure and will not survive to grow

To overcome challenges, people need strength and always practice to have strength both materially and in faith In particular, people need to have enough faith, will, and energy and always cultivate knowledge, experience, and skills to constantly complete themselves and strengthen themselves

3 Challenges in life

3.1, Health challenge (presented by Thu Hang)

A person's health is vital in life Health difficulties are issues that impact an individual's mental, emotional, and social well-being They can have a variety of reasons and manifest at any point in life

3.1.1 Poor eating practices

Cause: A rise in the use of processed foods, fast food, and sugary drinks is a result of modemization and convenience

Remedy: Raise awareness of nutrition and the advantages of eating a balanced diet Make

a well-balanced diet plan with an emphasis on fresh foods, healthy grains, and veggies

3.1.3 Tension and stress in the mind

Cause: Stress and mental exhaustion can be brought on by pressure from the job, family, and daily living

Fix: Develop stress management techniques by studying and putting them into practice These techniques include yoga, meditation, aerobics, leisure activities, and setting aside time for personal hobbies

3.1.4, Sleep deprivation and low quality sleep

Cause: It might be challenging to obtain enough sleep and high-quality sleep when living

a hectic, stressful life and using a smartphone constantly

Fix: Establish a cozy sleeping space, stick to a regular sleep routine, switch off electronics before night, and engage in calming activities like reading, listening to peaceful music, or shutting off the lights

Fix: To stop using drugs altogether or cut back, get professional or support group assistance Utilize self-care techniques and ask friends and family for assistance

3.1.6 A lack of routine health examinations and illness treatment

Causes include a lack of awareness on health management, neglecting self-care, and skipping regular checkups

Fix: Follow your doctor's advice to learn and implement disease preventive strategies, modify your lifestyle to be healthier, and get regular checkups It's critical to adhere to medical advice and have a regular check-up routine

3.2 Challenge in seft- development (presented by Van Thanh)

In life, personal development often faces many challenges and difficulties However, through perseverance and strong will, we can find solutions to overcome those challenges and move forward on the path of personal development

One of the biggest challenges is self- awareness At times, we may have difficulty recognizing our strengths, weaknesses, and goals The solution is

to create a habit of self-analysis and self-assessment every day, through taking notes, discussing with relatives,

or participating in personal development training sessions The next challenge is maintaining patience and motivation Along the way, we may

~ encounter failures, feel demotivated, and become discouraged To overcome, setting specific and smaller goals, seeking support from friends and family, and regularly

reminding ourselves of why we started are

solution is to learn how to prioritize work, create a flexible schedule, and know when to take breaks to avoid stress

Finally, a significant challenge lies in overcoming fear and self-doubt Sometimes, we can limit ourselves and not dare to step out of our comfort zone The solution is to practice courage, take risks, and learn from mistakes

13

Solutions for personal development also include learning and developing new skills Taking courses, reading books, and finding inspiration from successful people can help

us expand our knowledge and skills

In short, personal development is not only a challenging journey but also an opportunity for growth and self-expression By facing and overcoming these challenges with patience and determination, we can move strongly on the path of personal growth and success 3.3 Financial challenge (presented by Thanh Thao)

In today's life, people's financial challenges are becoming more and more complex and difficult In the context of rapid global economic development and constant technological change, people are facing many difficulties and pressures in managing and maintaining financial stability

3.3.1, Challenges in balancing monthly income and expenses

Uncontrolled, unplanned spending can lead to this difficulty Modem life with the development of advertising, media and consumer trends has a strong impact on people's shopping behavior Clever advertising and social pressure promote unnecessary consumption and cause financial waste Moreover, with the increase in prices of goods and services, along with inadequate income increases, many people face a situation where their income is not enough to meet basic expenses such as housing, electricity, water, food and products This causes them to cut back on unnecessary spending or look

14

for additional sources of income to get through daily life At the same time, they also need to improve their own financial management knowledge and skills and monitor their financial situation regularly to be able to overcome financial challenges in daily life 3.3.2 Challenges financial security in the future

With modem life full of complexity, saving and investing in long-term goals such as buying a house, car or retirement savings is more difficult than ever At the same time, the cost of medical and technological equipment is increasing, putting a lot of pressure

on people's financial abilities Many people face limited income and cannot afford to save This causes financial instability and difficulty achieving long-term financial goals

To overcome this challenge, building a financial backup plan, investing smartly, and saving are all important factors in ensuring a stable financial future

3.3.3 Challenges in managing and reducing debt

Personal loans have become a common problem, causing many people to fall into a spiral

of debt and difficulty repaying debt High-interest rates and uncontrolled credit card use both contribute to debt Rising debt can become a heavy burden, affecting financial stability and causing great psychological stress To overcome this challenge, we need to establish a debt repayment plan, cut unnecessary expenses, and find savings methods to reduce finacial pressure
