There is no better university of higher learning than Adversity University (AU). Whether or not you realize it, everybody is enrolled at AU … while still in your mother’s womb.
At AU, the first test you must pass is not only be a traumatic experience, but one that brings you the closest to death you will ever be, without actually dying. You take this test in your first class, which is called the matrix. From there, you travel down a hallway called the “birth canal” to your next level.
Adversity will teach you many things, but the most important thing you will ever learn at AU, is to use your experiences in life to grow. Among the many lessons you will learn, here are the 5 most important.
- Adversity introduces you to yourself.
- Adversity is like fire and removes the dross from our authentic self.
- Adversity teaches you to fight for what is best.
- Adversity forges your character because it helps you to discover what you are made of.
- Adversity develops an attitude of gratitude.
No one can use what happens to you like you can. The School of Hard Knocks is Adversity University where anyone can get an A … and YOU can too, if you choose to learn from YOUR adversity!
