Adversity pushes you, challenges you, tests you.
It can make you better, sharper, stronger, more resilient and bursting with confidence.
Or, it can break you.
Adversity stops the vast majority of people in their tracks. This is because adversity tests your commitment and your desire to succeed. It pushes you to the very limits of your capabilities and endurance level.
The fact is, without adversity, there would be no growth and without growth, there would be no success. Adversity forces you to grow into the person you need to be in order for success to visit you.
If your reasons for pursuing success are not powerful enough, adversity will almost certainly cause you to quit on yourself. You must have a powerful WHY that keeps you motivated and focused on a daily basis. Your WHY creates the passion that carries you through adversity.
Adversity is really a series of tests to determine the power of your WHY. Individuals who relentlessly overcome adversity, without quitting on themselves, have a bigger WHY than those who throw in the towel.
How do you know if your WHY is powerful enough?
Your WHY is powerful enough if it infiltrates your thoughts during the day and your dreams at night. Your WHY is powerful enough when the dream you are pursuing occupies your thoughts on weekends, vacations, holidays, family events, etc.
When the dream you’re pursuing is with you 24/7, then your WHY is powerful enough.
