“Strength does not come from winning. Your struggles develop your strengths. When you go through hardships and decide not to surrender, that is strength.”
-Arnold Schwarzenegger
Often in life, you get knocked down on your ass, repeatedly. Sometimes it feels like the harder you try, the more things go wrong. And the old adage of when it rains, it pours has new meaning. When you find yourself stuck in these ruts, it’s so easy to throw in the towel and say I’m done – I’m tired. I’m tired of fighting an uphill battle. I’m tired of always finishing last or second best. I’m tired of feeling like I’m not good enough. I’m simply tired of being tired. But, it is during these moments of utter desolation that you have to find that fire within you to not give up, to not surrender and to stand back up and say, “This is not how my story is going to end.” And, it is in these moments that true strength is forged.
