“The quality of your entire personality is affected by how you deal with adversity, how well you keep your chin up.” – Brian Tracy
When I was a kid, I was told by someone that adversity is like fertilizer – it stinks but it helps us grow.
There is truth in that.
There is a lot that people go through in their lives.
Many know that Lincoln failed many times before he became president of the United States. Many know that the most successful people had multiple failures. I, myself, have failed more than I cared to admit. But at some point, you have to pick yourself up and take that failure and learn from it.
Then, when adversity comes (and it will surely come), you grin, put your head down, and go for what it is your want. Because there is no way you can live with yourself and be happy if you don’t push forward through the adversity.
It’s like the plant just starting to grow from a seed. It’s got to push it’s way out of the ground and catch that sunlight to engage in photosynthesis to grow and develop. The same is true for us. We must grow. We must grow through adversity to become who we need to be.
And for all of us, the process does not stop.
It goes on.
When you are ready to grow, call me.
We’ll grow together.
