We each have our own stories of perseverance; how we've fought against defeat and found the strength to continue following our personal development plans to achieve our goals. This is the hero's journey
What is the hero's journey exactly? The term is associated with Joseph Campbell and his book, The Hero with a Thousand Faces. In it, Campbell describes the mythical path to transformation that defines a hero:
"A hero ventures forth from the world of common day into a region of supernatural wonder: fabulous forces are there encountered and a decisive victory is won. The hero comes back from this mysterious adventure with the power to bestow boons on his fellow man."
