Every man has his own personality that makes up his whole individuality. Everyone is uniquely molded. A certainty that can never be denied. That is why no one must step on anybody because the potential of every individual cannot always be underestimated. There are hidden strengths and abilities that are destined to be unveiled at the right time.
Particularly, that person who had been tested by several arduous trials in life and was able to survive attains greater heights when it comes to accomplishments. This is due to the fact that when a person manages to overcome various obstacles they learn how to become versatile that later on makes it easier to deal with troubles.
Take for example a person who suffered long term from sleep apnea would already know its symptoms and eventually develop a personal set of remedies that would relieve the symptoms. So it is better to think of the problems as helpful challenges rather than a bad experience. This would strengthen you, so why not wake the dragon inside you?
