Another item in my Creed would be something about failure and struggle making us stronger. People who have easy lives are easily broken. While failure, tragedy, “bad luck” and struggle doesn’t feel good when it’s happening, it’s a gift, often with a message to make us better – and we will realize it later if we are wise.
True – it’s best to learn from other people’s mistakes, but sometimes we have to learn the hard way because we didn’t pay attention.
How have your struggles made you stronger and wiser today?
I’ve learned in business everything that I have learned cost me money.
I have learned two things from this. Sometimes we go through hardships to help others when they go through the same. I have also learned that sometimes things need to completely break or hit rock bottom before we can rebuild them and make them greater. Through all of this, we have to look from within and realize how we can change to be better, wiser, smarter, and more understanding. Make it a great day everyone!
The key to this thought for me is to not feel despondent when things go poorly. I need to look at it like a stepping stone on the path of progress and try something better.
My struggles have made me a more emotionally mature man both in my business and personal life. Sometimes, we learn the most valuable lessons through the worst experiences.
