Answer and Explanation:
When you hear the word challenges, what comes to mind? Is the word positive or negative?
When I hear the word "challenges", what comes to my mind is the sense of difficulty or the image of an obstacle. To me, at first, the word has a negative connotation. I tend to think of a challenge as something that makes it more difficult for me to achieve my goals.
Based on your prior experiences, how can challenges be helpful to an individual? How can they be harmful?
Based on my own experiences and the challenges I have faced in life, I believe they can be helpful since they get us out of our comfort zone. Even though they discouraged me at the beginning, once I faced them, challenges revealed themselves to be the best masters. I learned endurance, perseverance, and humility from them. On the other hand, when challenges are too frequent or too difficult, they may end up killing our passion and drive for something. In that sense, they can be harmful.
