Overcoming disability

In Class we discussed some of the artists who had overcome their disabilities and progressed through their career as artists and songwriters. Disability is most looked upon with a negative connotation in our society. I would like propose that we look at disability as an obstacle. We all have our "obstacles" in our lives which may not qualify as "disability." Maybe if we try to look as disability as obstacle it may help relate to those who have to overcome their disability.
At the same time, would doing so, put less value on the "overcoming" of ones disability? Physical or mental disability would definitely require more than obstacles that we face in our daily lives.
