A key takeaway from the book, Endurance: Shackleton’s Incredible Voyage, was the power of human spirit. With most odds against the crew, their unwavering goal fuels their perseverance. Every task was daunting, but their ability to overcome extreme physical and mental exhaustion was awe-inspiring. Both perseverance and endurance can be applied to everyday tasks, no matter big or small. A huge part of life is navigating through challenges and not always do you succeed. In some contexts, failure is a stepping stone to success. Finding inner strength within yourself to persist in any circumstance is both one of the most challenging, yet rewarding tasks.

Hello, Kaitlyn. I really liked the poem you posted and its tie in to the human spirit throughout the book. Human spirit really is important. Shackleton's spirit inspired the crew to keep going as he refused to give up. This human spirit really is what enabled the crew to overcome challenges and believe in each other. Human spirit was the crew's super power and what drove them to keep going no matter what. Great job on your post!
