Thandolwethu: 'This 'Karate kid' will show you why you should never give up'
Updated | By Thandolwethu
As with anything in life, with a little dedication and persistence, anything is possible.
"Never give up" - a phrase used to help us through the tough times when we feel that it can't be done. If you need a little motivation to get you through the day, this one's for you.
Learning something new is not always an easy feat, but when you master it, the feeling of success has to be one of the best things to experience in the world.
A video of little kid attempting to break a tile at karate is making the rounds on social media. You can see at the beginning that he's putting his all into it. He tries a few times and eventually breaks down crying in the process.

But thanks to his peers and his instructor Erik Gianni, he refuses to allow failure to enter his moment. Giving everything he got, he eventually smashes the tile, and everyone loses it.
His mom shared the video initally captioning it: "My boy learned one of the most important lessons in his life today! NEVER.. EVER GIVE UP!!! Thank you Bobby Dixon and Erik Gianini for all that you do! AHOO!!!"
Many people have told be that I wasn't enough and have uttered many horrible words to me, some that I won't go into now, but all I can tell you is that if a little one like can his mind to it and do what seems like the impossible to him, what's stopping us?
You're unstoppable - never forget that!
