One lesson I learned from The Last Lecture by Randy Pausch is that challenges are there for a reason‚ and I have to push through them. He said‚ “the brick walls are there for a reason. They’re not there to keep us out.

He said “they’re there to stop the other people.” (Pausch 80) The “other people”

This week’s discussion was very touching. I must have watched “ The last lecture Reprised “ by Dr. Randy Pausch 3 or four times.
