NAME: Yary Rios.

What motivational obstacles do you have—and how do you overcome them? My motivational obstacle is ATTITUDE, my feelings always get the best of me sometimes when I don’t agree with someone or something my emotions tend to be what speaks without taking the time to analyze the situation I might over react because of this. A way to overcome this obstacle is by understanding that there are things I can’t prevent from happening and I must always think before acting or talking, other have different opinions from mine and that is ok.
