Movember

Movember started when four guys at a bar decided to grow mustaches for a cause they felt needed to be heard. At that time growing a mustache was not something many people were doing, so when they only had a small amount of people growing mustaches, many people thought they were odd because the movement had not spread. The speaker had  a good message about persistence. They could have easily given up after they did not get as many people grow mustaches as they wanted to. Instead, they decided to keep it going, the next year trying to get more people to grow mustaches then the previous year, which they did. This can be translated to any challenge in life. If you give up early, you will never have a chance to make something out of it. Movember persisted through their challenges to get the word out, and because they did this they became the number one donors for prostate cancer, one year raising more than 77 million dollars.
