Rob Speaks About Why the Bridge Worked for Him 

3/3/2016

0 Comments

 
It was wonderful catching up with Rob, and we thank him for his many insights from a participant's perspective about how The Bridge can be a unique and supportive experience for a young man who "thought the world was a hard place" and that he "wasn't good enough for it." ​
Short on time?  Here are the highlights:  
  1. It taught me the value of my own work
  2. Allowed me to trust my abilities
  3. Made me realize that there was something I wanted and I could make it happen
  4. It was fun!
  5. The diversity of experiences really broadened by scope
  6. It never felt intrusive to work on my personal development
  7. I learned how to manage time and planning
  8. There was a sense of support and a group goal of learning together
  9. It’s a lot like a family but people are also encouraged to develop their own individuality
  10. It teaches young men to understand the power they have to steer the direction of their lives


Overflowing with time?
