Difficulties should be identified as opportunities.
Throughout time, many great people have appeared, and they have all become
great out of difficulties that they’ve had. They have been able to take the
difficulties and use them as a source of learning. You do not become a great
person by simply enjoying and having a good time.
Ordinary people encounter
difficulties and are weighted down and are unable to get up. Great people do
not accept suffering as suffering – instead, they see it as an opportunity,
they learn from difficulties and mistakes and improve themselves.
