Thank God For Everything (TGIF) - Never Give up ’The Commencement’

Welcome back to Cousin Ed's Corner, Today I wanted to share a YouTube clip of Deshauna Barber commencement speech on Thank God For Everything (TGIF) - Never Give up 'The Commencement'. In this episode, Deshauna shares her story of perseverance and not giving up on her goals. She talks about how she was initially reluctant to enter beauty pageants but was encouraged to do so. Despite facing multiple losses, Deshauna was determined to keep going and not quit. Deshauna uses her personal experience of falling during a race because her shoes were too big as a metaphor for not being ready to achieve our aspirations. She encourages graduates to pace themselves on their journey and not fear failure, but to be terrified of regret. Deshauna acknowledges that we will face many rejections and failures, but urges us to not take no for an answer and to keep pushing forward. She even welcomes rejection as fuel to work harder towards her goals. I also want to emphasize the importance of perseverance and share that as many Nos' as you get, all you need is one "Yes." I encourage you to continue to fight and not let any challenge hold them back. Deshauna's message is clear: "Believe in your aspirations and don't be afraid of the word No, but instead welcome it as an opportunity to work harder."
