Ride your difficulties.

CHALLENGES ARE BUILDERS

Rock bottom is not a place any man wants to be, yet many men have been there, many are there right now, and many will still get there. It is not a good place to be, but being there is not the end of life. Life can be very harsh and unfair, but you have to go through life however difficult it may seem. You have to be your own source of strength, you can not go through the thick and tough issues of life without having real strength within you. You are a reservoir of everything that you need to go through life successfully.

People can help you get out of trouble if you realise that you are in trouble, and you are willing and ready to get out of it, no one can do anything for you against your own will. You must believe in yourself and who you are. Your current situation may not be palatable and desirable, but that cannot be the end of the road. Nevertheless, you must be ready to come out of the challenges through determination and sincere effort. You can craft and create the life you want by doing the things that will bring you out of your situation.

Rock bottom is a platform to begin your growth, and with the dedication that is required you can come out of the deep pit and become anything you want to be, you can grow to heights you never imagined, you can become anything you want to be. The only way out of trouble, is to go through it, to withstand the difficulties and grow strength, and build a tough skin for the journey ahead. Easy times they say create soft men, but tough times create tough men, who will in turn create a better life for themselves.

Joseph B. Wirthlin once said, “As with the butterfly, adversity is necessary to build character in people.“ we should not always see adversity as a condition that has come to destroy us, rather we should see it as one that has come to strengthen us, build us, and help us build character. A man who have not experienced the challenges of life would not know how to deal with one when faced with it in a critical time. Conquering small challenges today will help you build the courage and strength to overcome bigger ones tomorrow.
