Robot Revenge

I am learning to create a narrative from an image
Kicking rocks along the side of the road as he made his way home from school, Zac glanced up at the building that was at least a month old now celebrating the New Year of 2050. Zac appeared to be an average teenage boy with a slender figure, long sandy brown hair that would fall over his face and thick glasses that would slip down the tip of his nose. Zac had a passion for all things science and would always set himself little task, like the time he created a self cleaning shower, or the Vacmicro, a vacuum cleaner that would also zap your food while you work. So it wasn’t unusual for Zac to set himself a challenge.
Bursting through the door Zac announced, “I’m going to make a giant red robot.’’ Grabbing bits and pieces, his arms overflowing with mechanical goods he made his way up the stairs, slamming his bedroom door behind him. Zac made a start and put all the wires into the robot. He painted it red and blue. Soon enough he finished and standing right in front of his eyes was a humongous red robot with sharp pincers.
“Before I turn him on I need to name him I should name him Barnaby.” Zac switched the on button and Barnaby started moving side to side but then he started rocking faster and faster until he was going ballistic tearing his room to bits. Then suddenly Barnaby picked up Zac and threw him out the window. Barnaby tried to jump out the window after him but he was too big so he smashed the wall down and nearly landed on Zac!
Barnaby picked up Zac and tried to throw him into his garage. But Zac managed to slip out of his hand and tried to push the robot away but sadly Zac wasn’t strong enough. Barnaby chucked Zac into the garage. Zac sat down trying to think what had happened. “I know what happened, I put the wrong wire in Barnaby.” He was sitting there feeling really silly. “I’d better try and find a way out of here.” He looked around then he found something which looked like a light switch but it was the switch to open the door. Zac was so relieved he thought he was going to die in there.
Zac ran outside after being stuck in the garage for two hours. Then Zac remembered something, “AHH I need to find Barnaby.” Zac went hunting then finally he found Barnaby but Barnaby had been picking Zac's Mum’s bright red roses. As soon as Barnaby demolished all the roses he noticed Zac and they began a fight, kicking and punching. Zac made his way up to Barnaby back. Zac opened the door to all the wire and yanked out the evil wire. Then Barnaby broke down. Zac ran to his room and retrieved the friendly wire. Zac connected the wire then slowly Barnaby came to life but in a nice way.

“All things are difficult before they are easy”

"All things are difficult before they are easy"

To me, this mindset means
that you have to practice when something is hard and you’ll get good at it.

I could use this mindset
when I think I will never be good at anything or trying something new.
