Overcoming Circumstance
In these trying times we are presented with a number of ways that we can choose to view our circumstances...
We can choose to allow ourselves to succumb to circumstance. This might be easier for us because we protect ourselves from any accountability.
However, in doing so we have no power to change our circumstance. We can be robust. We can resist the circumstance and thus become immune to it's negative effects.
We are contempt with the external environment, choosing not to play victim.
We can take a third approach too. We can be, as author Nassim Taleb explains, "antifragile".
The power to resist change and grow from it. The power to turn a negative to a positive. The power to mould your circumstance into something that benefits you and the people around you.
Strength to us isn't just about resistance, it's about adaptation.
Stay strong.
Train hard.

Amen, so true. When life sends you lemons make lemonade. Love it...
