ACHIEVING GOALS WITH 16 YEAR OLD JESSICA WATSON!!
SELF RELIANCE..JESSICA WATSON IS AN EXAMPLE FOR ALL OF US!!
One of the keys to success is self reliance. When are people old enough to rely on them self and achieving goals that they always dreamed of? To me, age is not part of the equation. Take Jessica Watson as an example. She received so much criticism for living her dream and hopefully succeeding. She is an perfect example of how to succeed regardless of the doom sayers.
16 year old Jessica Watson is gearing up for the most dangerous part of her solo round-the-world voyage. The teenager is heading for the world’s most deadly stretch of sea, Cape Horn, relying solely on the headsail after suffering a problem with the mainsail. Jessica Watson’s parents have flown to South America in the hope of catching sight of her as she rounds Cape Horn.
Cape Horn is notorious for strong winds, big waves, strong currents and icebergs. But despite admitting to being a “little bit on edge” because of the strong winds and cold, the Australian teenager is in good spirits and enjoying the challenging conditions. “The cabin temp has been sitting on 4C. The wind chill outside is really quite something. Handling wet lines on deck is just downright painful, but mostly I’m staying toasty warm in all my layers,” she said.
Jessica Watson is expected to reach Cape Horn early next week. If Jessica completes the trip around the world, she will become the youngest solo yachtsman to circumnavigate the globe.
“There are people out there who I suppose have their doubts, and rightly so because it’s a big, scary and possibly dangerous thing, but I am not here without self confidence,” Watson said.
In preparation for the race, the 16-year-old sailor hit a 60,000 tonne coal tanker off the coast of Stradbroke Island in pitch darkness. I came through the whole thing feeling pretty confident. I mean, I won’t play it down, it was a pretty scary incident,” she said. “But years of planning and learning obviously paid off.
She was shaken, but not stirred from her resolve to circle the globe alone. In fact, she’s thus far found the accident to be an exercise in self-reliance. “The whole incident gives me confidence ..wow, I can actually handle this,” she told reporters. “It could have happened to anyone… I’m unlucky I suppose, but you also learn from it.”
Jessica is showing tremendous leadership and showing people around the world to live your life and chase your dreams…well done Jessica and thank you!!
