You Will Love Cheering On This Boy Pumping Himself Up to Jump in the Pool

Jul 17 2015 - 8:21am

Everyone has fears, and to overcome them you might need a little pumping up for confidence. For this little boy, jumping into the pool was his Everest, and instead of bowing out and leaving the big jump for another day, he got himself amped up — screaming, "I am brave! I am strong!" — took a few steps back, and jumped straight into that pool.

The video is adorable, as is his giggle at the end — little-kid-laugh perfection — but what's more important is that he faced his fear and believed in himself. We could all learn something about courage and determination from him . . .

. . . and Bruce Willis.
