Monday Motivation: Michael Jordan on Obstacles

from Beyond the Bright Lights Hosted by Scott Johnston

Beyond the Bright Lights is a twice a week motivational sports show, hosted by Scott Johnston. Every Monday, Scott who has Cerebral Palsy and uses a wheelchair shares some of the wisdom he has learned using an inspiring or motivational quote from a coach or athlete. Also, Every Friday Scott Interviews an athlete or sports media professional to find out how the lessons that they've learned from sports have helped them overcome the adversity that they face in everyday life. Today Scott shares this quote from six-time NBA Champion, Michael Jordan: "Obstacles don't have to stop you. If you run into a wall, don't turn around and give up. Figure out how to climb it, go through it, or work around it." He talks about how it's important to keep going when you face obstacles in your own life and how he's learned to adapt and overcome, those that he's faced. Don't forget to check out the Premiere Interview episode where Scott is interviewed by his good friend, Paul Loeffler. He talks about his early health struggles, his diagnosis and much more! If you want more information on Cerebral Palsy and how you can help someone affected by it, you can go to the Cerebral Palsy Foundation's website: www.yourcpf.org.
