Episode 2818:

Adversity is often seen as an obstacle, but Ross Enamait reminds us that it’s a transformative force, shaping resilience, character, and determination. By embracing challenges as opportunities for growth, we can unlock strength and perseverance we never knew we had.

Read along with the original article(s) here: http://rosstraining.com/blog/2015/12/09/adversity-is-what-makes-you/

Quotes to ponder:

"Adversity is what forces us to change, adapt, and ultimately improve."

"It’s not what happens to us that defines us, but how we respond to the challenges we face."

"Growth comes from doing what is hard, not from staying in a place of comfort."
